When the war comes home

I feel,

Therefore, I am

I bleed, I weep

When your skin burns, I feel singed

Your home blows up, I feel bereaved

Your child goes hungry to sleep, how can I digest dinner?

Your limbs torn, eyes gouged, body lying bloodied

I sleep in my room, dreaming of wars fought elsewhere

When I wake up, my clothes drip blood

My soul burns, limbs hurt

Has the war come home when I was asleep?
