Hypnotized
ice cold numbness
bathing the hands and feet
of soldiers past
doused in healing water
reaching into portals beyond
and flesh and bones
of days gone by
and a time where sirens
fill the skies
the laughter of chidren dies
he glazed the tip of the scapel
to the wound in my mind
unknowing if whether
the stitch would hold
but had faith in the light of my eyes
her pain was great and lasted years
but the greater pain seen in his tears
a universal bandaid was what he saw
to nulify the scars of war
the surgeon's hopes
are filled with fears
but love outlasts
all human tears
