1-2-3-4, I Love the Marine Core.

my brother is home.
im so proud.
im so glad.
he is really here.
we are still so close.
but i know he'll leave again.
in 10 days.
for 21 days.
and for a year o'er.
but i am ok.
because he is glad.
he is a marine.
and proud.
but i feel nothing.
why?
why am i empty.
and exhausted.
and somber.
my mind is gone.
i cannot grasp it.
the silver lining.
