Getting your heart onto the screen isn't easy but I tried...

Somewhere Out There

Somewhere out there is a pathc of land
A land of where God pressed his hand
Blood seeped so far into ground
Year's ago, that's where a head pound
A block of metal was lain there
To kill a body, they didn't care
But as I sit in the dark here
Another will shed a tear
Not for mine but for her own
Thank God I am not alone

Somewhere out there is a piece of indented grass
Most don't look, they only pass
But I am here a lifetime away
It is there, be as it may
Years ago a bomb was blown
And mine was hit alone
Many for him, I know cried
Because the lone fact that he had died
Maybe for a reason, maybe for me
But right now I can not think, I have to let be

For somewhere out there is a missing heart
And for this lifetime we will always be apart
There should be a flower, one for me
But over there it is too chaotic, and I cannot travel that sea
So as I sit safe and sound
Over there, that sacred ground

Somewhere out there is someone who knows
I need them, for truth my heart will sew
That person is nameless for now
But I wish they would come out and take a bow
For it is them that keeps mine alive
For if they left mine would surey dive
So now as I search
Those nam soldiers sit on theirs perch
Laughing, knowing, that mine will never come back
But he is who brought their life back to tack

Somewhere out there is one of them
One of them who will not condem
One of them that cares about mine
But they sit there just like me, questioning that patch
Whose husband carries his rifle under their hatch
Maybe it was he he who killed mine
I know he wouldn't care, that's just fine
Maybe it was mine that killed that boy
His picture frame sitting in her lap, made only from soy

Somehwere out there is a lost soul
Thinking they don't want to pay that toll
Take that train, leaving that jungle far away
But if they don't, there he will forever lay
He may be far from me now
But if he leaves, safe he will always be, and that'll be his vow
For if he stay
My mind will surely sway
For that land will alwys be
Heaven to my heart is his key

Somehwere out there is a patch of land
A land of where God pressed his hand
Blood seeped so far into ground
Years ago, that's where a head pound
A block of metal was lain there
To kill a body, they didn't care
But as I sit in the dark here
Another will sehd a tear
Not for mine but for her own
Thank God I am not alone


Ok so it is what it is, I wrote this a year ago and I'm not sure in what kind of state of mind I was in. I do write a lot but this is my first time writing something that rhymed so it probably isn't the best thing you've ever read. And it might not make sense but those are my feelings about everything and I hope it was at least a little enjoyable.

Taylor,

Don't be concerned about it "making sense".

Those who feel the flow from your heart will understand. :wink:

Taylor-

Thanks much for sharing that with us. The emotions come through just fine. Poety ain't easy. Took a shot at it once myself. Here's a link: http://iwvpa.net/keimhe/index.php You might enjoy looking around the site it's posted on.
