I fought their ugly war in 91,
Never wanted to hurt no one but had to kill,
Hated myself for years and years,
only others like me understand,
to everyone else its just a movie,
get over it and be a man,
had wives lost wives I only wanted peace,
battle rages on in my head,
will take a special woman to share my bed,
thought I found her but I was fooled,
only wanted VA money man was I schooled,
will not leave me in peace,
hoping to hurt the beast,
spit on me rub shit in my face,
I'm numb can't kill the dead,
will they hurt me by taking my son,
my last heart beat they don't care,
for me or hiom either,
she only says why don't you go ahead and die fool,
They like dope and living in the unreal,
I paid for their sinking high with my life,
now others must pay so the weak can exsist,

Come on and play on the edge of life with me. Its fun and I love every minute of it!!!

This poem reminds me of ones from a friend of mine, who was in the nam and now works for the VA doing mental health outreach for vets.
