The first
time I
left for
Fort Jackson
Mark’s girlfriend
was crying
so hard
you’d think
it was him
going instead
of me
and I
remember
you were
pissed that
she was
there since
we left
the kids
at home
so I
could just
leave fast
break clean
hopefully be
on the
plane before
reality set
in but
instead she
cried like
a baby
or the
manic depressive
she was
while I
shifted
uncomfortably
from foot
to foot
not sure
what to
say to
you and
less sure
what you
should say
to me
good bye
seemed too
thin but
now I
wish I
would have
said it
considering
how much
of me
never made
it home.
