Fear.
Fear I won’t make it home alive,
and fear I’ll never feel again
the way Jolene Stewart
makes me crave her next touch.
She’s my kryptonite.
My vice.
The one thing that makes me
secretly wish for tomorrows and forever afters
when all I’ve ever done is serve.
Give without even a thought
for my fellow man & country
after seeing so many soldiers
die by my side.
But now, all I want is to stay
with her and her daughter
in this new world
we’ve created together.
But when nightmares
from her past come calling,
and my next tour has me leaving
with the fear I once again won’t return,
this time can I be man enough
to promise her forever?
Or will finally giving her my heart
be worse than any fate
that awaits me overseas?”
