Deployment of a Female Soldier
She writes with pain,
tears in her words,
and a salty whimper in her sigh.
She walks without feeling,
hiding her fears,
sheltering her sadness.
She only cries alone,
for no one to hear,
so no one can see.
She is true and real,
strong and fair,
prepared to accept her failure;
prepared to accept her demise.
