Forever Perminate

About Vietnam War

I wanted to be that forever young

Wanting to live as long as

My little lungs can carry me

I’m being blown away

Like I’m taking up space.

This is My land

Our land

We fight cause we are different

We hesitate for peace

We live our lives secret

We hope the war will cease

Never exist

But

It’s here.

Forever Permanent

Like lives tossed into trenches

Permanent

Like my memory

So easy to be taken away

My life is just a name

I’m only a witness

The foreigners are the warriors

The television war

Dying to save me

Hoping to keep me awhile

Crushing me from under them

Putting me…

       Far

             Far

            Away

So No one can see me

Making me,

A Mark

   In the ground

I am Obsolete

Hit me

Press DELETE

Forget me

Move on

Forever Perminate
