Semper Fidelis
my eyes went dry
the first time I saw you afterwards
chanting in your military uniform
when the planes roared above
I wondered how many years it would take for me to forget
the sound of your musical voice shouting "Semper Fi"...
but you were never faithful, were you?
I
have finally learned that you aren't worth my tears
and what about you?
-MWE
