    Poem Commentary

    "A poem is thought of concern. It is the light in a dream, that you need to learn the purpose we are searching for. Even if a poem does not compare to you, if written correctly, it will touch your heart in a way that will never be forgotten" -JTMH

    "Broken Hearted Memories"
    While serving our nation
    forever to change
    though never to falter
    while bearing such pain

    The smallest of scars
    will bind every fear
    with care and devotion
    our memorable tears

    Now that the lives
    these soldiers brought home
    their hearts ever broken
    and memories will show

    Bearing the agony
    from injuries passed by
    will never compare
    to the tears we have cried

    The smallest of scars
    trigger memories of loss
    for soldiers that died
    and have broken our hearts.

    Does it matter? Carrying a permanent emotional scar for the rest of your life, while mourning the death of your brothers and sisters of war, does not require a name or title of a home country. Someday, our world will live together as one. -JTMH

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
