Poems

1 - Quiet

War can be silent

It’s not always loud

I’m trying to reach her

She’s not to be found

My heart starts to ache

In truth, I am helpless

She’s out of my reach

And I can’t circumvent this

Please, please keep her safe

What- whoever you are

It’s out if my hands

So I’ll wish

Upon a star.
