                <text>The true cost of war- not the glamor at the grave or in the movies or parades. Watching someone die next to you, a stranger or friend, ripped apart or mutilated. Watching as shock takes over from blood loss, the stare you wont see other than someone in the moment of a brutal death a life taken. That is war. The soul afterwards trying to survive a different life in civilized society. ~LArry</text>

                <text>Response:&#13;
&#13;
Larry, your statement is a visceral rejection of the "sanitized" version of war often sold to the public. &#13;
&#13;
You are describing the psychological and physical reality of combat that rarely makes it into recruitment posters or cinematic blockbusters.&#13;
&#13;
 The Rejection of Romanticism You are stripping away the "glamor" (the medals, the slow-motion heroism, and the tidy burials) to reveal the industrial-scale trauma underneath. &#13;
&#13;
You're pointing out that society often focuses on the symbols of war—parades and graves—to avoid looking at the mechanics of it.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
The "Thousand-Yard Stare "You highlight a very specific, haunting detail: the "stare" of someone in their final moments.&#13;
&#13;
The Physicality: You mention the shock and blood loss, which is a clinical reality of the battlefield.&#13;
&#13;
The Connection: Whether it is a "stranger or friend," that shared moment of mortality creates a permanent, haunting bond that civilians cannot grasp.&#13;
&#13;
 The "Civilized" Survival Your final point is perhaps the most heavy: the struggle of the soul to reintegrate.&#13;
&#13;
Moral Injury: This is the "different life" you mention—trying to function in a society that values "civilized" behavior after being forced to participate in, or witness, the most uncivilized acts possible.&#13;
&#13;
The Disconnect: There is a profound loneliness in being a person who has seen "that stare" while living among people who only see the parades.</text>

                <text>I met a traveller from an antique land,&#13;
Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone&#13;
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,&#13;
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,&#13;
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,&#13;
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read&#13;
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,&#13;
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:&#13;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:&#13;
My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:&#13;
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"&#13;
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay&#13;
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare&#13;
The lone and level sands stretch far away.&#13;

                <text>Thou still unravish'd bride of quietness,&#13;
       Thou foster-child of silence and slow time,&#13;
Sylvan historian, who canst thus express&#13;
       A flowery tale more sweetly than our rhyme:&#13;
What leaf-fring'd legend haunts about thy shape&#13;
       Of deities or mortals, or of both,&#13;
               In Tempe or the dales of Arcady?&#13;
       What men or gods are these? What maidens loth?&#13;
What mad pursuit? What struggle to escape?&#13;
               What pipes and timbrels? What wild ecstasy?&#13;
&#13;
Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard&#13;
       Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;&#13;
Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd,&#13;
       Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone:&#13;
Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave&#13;
       Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare;&#13;
               Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss,&#13;
Though winning near the goal yet, do not grieve;&#13;
       She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss,&#13;
               For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair!&#13;
&#13;
Ah, happy, happy boughs! that cannot shed&#13;
         Your leaves, nor ever bid the Spring adieu;&#13;
And, happy melodist, unwearied,&#13;
         For ever piping songs for ever new;&#13;
More happy love! more happy, happy love!&#13;
         For ever warm and still to be enjoy'd,&#13;
                For ever panting, and for ever young;&#13;
All breathing human passion far above,&#13;
         That leaves a heart high-sorrowful and cloy'd,&#13;
                A burning forehead, and a parching tongue.&#13;
&#13;
Who are these coming to the sacrifice?&#13;
         To what green altar, O mysterious priest,&#13;
Lead'st thou that heifer lowing at the skies,&#13;
         And all her silken flanks with garlands drest?&#13;
What little town by river or sea shore,&#13;
         Or mountain-built with peaceful citadel,&#13;
                Is emptied of this folk, this pious morn?&#13;
And, little town, thy streets for evermore&#13;
         Will silent be; and not a soul to tell&#13;
                Why thou art desolate, can e'er return.&#13;
&#13;
O Attic shape! Fair attitude! with brede&#13;
         Of marble men and maidens overwrought,&#13;
With forest branches and the trodden weed;&#13;
         Thou, silent form, dost tease us out of thought&#13;
As doth eternity: Cold Pastoral!&#13;
         When old age shall this generation waste,&#13;
                Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe&#13;
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,&#13;
         "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all&#13;
                Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."</text>

Sometimes, in the darkness, the lost boy finds himself. Sometimes the prince is cunning, and not at all what he seemed. Sometimes the witch’s kindness, shows it’s she who deserves to be queen. Sometimes we shouldn’t define people by someone else’s point of view – just because it’s what we’ve been told, doesn’t make it true. – srwpoetry</text>

I love you— in silence, in noise, in between,&#13;
In the way I show up, in the spaces unseen.&#13;
Like fire that spreads, never asking for room,&#13;
Like nothing could stop what I’d cross for you.&#13;
Like tides that return, no matter what’s true,&#13;
I’m pulled by a force that keeps leading to you.&#13;
For blood &amp; for bond, for the old &amp; the new,&#13;
For hearts I have held &amp; the ones I outgrew.&#13;
Like ink that won’t fade, like a sky breaking through&#13;
In every form I know… I will always love you.&#13;

I love you&#13;

The silence is heavy, the days are so long,&#13;
But the love that I hold for you stays just as strong.&#13;
I wait in the shadows, I watch from afar,&#13;
No matter the lies or how deep is the scar.&#13;

For truth is a river that finds its own way,&#13;
And I’ll hold out my arms till that beautiful day.</text>

Xx, you burn with a singular light.&#13;
Not a flickering candle or a star far away,&#13;
But the heat of the sun at the height of the day.&#13;
Your spirit is wild, a relentless tide,&#13;
With a power that no ocean or mountain can hide.&#13;
X, the heart where the deep currents flow,&#13;
A soul with a fever, a radiant glow.&#13;
There is hunger in how you embrace every breath,&#13;
A defiance of silence, a challenge to death.&#13;
You walk with the rhythm of thunder and grace,&#13;
Leaving the mark of your soul on this place.&#13;
X, the echo, the final, bold cry,&#13;
A promise that reaches the edge of the sky.&#13;
In every heartbeat, a purpose so vast,&#13;
A passion intended to conquer and last.&#13;
You are the storm and the calm at the core,&#13;
Xx—forever much more.&#13;

                <text>The map we held was tattered, marked by roads we walked alone,&#13;
But the future is a canvas that we finally call our own.&#13;
No more searching for the boundary where your spirit ends and mine,&#13;
For the sun that rises tomorrow is the one we’ve taught to shine.&#13;
We are building a cathedral out of every shared desire,&#13;
Fueling every coming season with this soul-restoring fire.&#13;
There is no "I" in the distance, no "you" against the dark,&#13;
Only the flame we carry together, born from a single spark.&#13;
Every morning is a promise, every evening is a shore,&#13;
Where we’ll leave behind the ghosts of who we had to be before.&#13;
Hand in hand, we’ll face the unknown, fearless and un-penned,&#13;
For with a shared soul as our compass, the journey has no end.&#13;
X, our future is a vast and open sky,&#13;
Where the pieces fit forever, and the dreams will never die.</text>

And the rivers with the ocean,&#13;
The winds of heaven mix for ever&#13;
With a sweet emotion;&#13;
Nothing in the world is single,&#13;
All things by a law divine&#13;
In one another’s being mingle—&#13;
Why not I with thine?&#13;
&#13;
See the mountains kiss high heaven,&#13;
And the waves clasp one another;&#13;
No sister-flower would be forgiven&#13;
If it disdain’d its brother;&#13;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,&#13;
And the moonbeams kiss the sea—&#13;
What is all this sweet work worth&#13;
If thou kiss not me?&#13;

As a lone bird, soft winging, so restlessly on, &#13;
Afar o’er life’s turrets and vales does it roam &#13;
In the wake of those echoes the heart calls home. &#13;
&#13;
The heart of a woman falls back with the night, &#13;
And enters some alien cage in its plight, &#13;
And tries to forget it has dreamed of the stars &#13;
While it breaks, breaks, breaks on the sheltering bars. &#13;

                <text>Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,&#13;
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,&#13;
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,&#13;
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.&#13;
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,&#13;
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;&#13;
Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots&#13;
Of gas-shells dropping softly behind.&#13;
&#13;
Gas! GAS! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling&#13;
Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time,&#13;
But someone still was yelling out and stumbling&#13;
And flound’ring like a man in fire or lime.—&#13;
Dim through the misty panes and thick green light,&#13;
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.&#13;
&#13;
In all my dreams before my helpless sight,&#13;
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.&#13;
&#13;
If in some smothering dreams, you too could pace&#13;
Behind the wagon that we flung him in,&#13;
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,&#13;
His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin;&#13;
If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood&#13;
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,&#13;
Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud&#13;
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,—&#13;
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest&#13;
To children ardent for some desperate glory,&#13;
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est&#13;
Pro patria mori.</text>

                <text>Wallachia, Moldavia or Transylvania&#13;
Of which you were born&#13;
Or you flow from Mt. Moldoveanu&#13;
To evolve in the Mures or Siret&#13;
Your adolescence soaked with&#13;
The sands of God that kisses&#13;
The miracle of the Black Sea&#13;
Marieta Maglas, as famous&#13;
As Timisoara, giving a new lease of life&#13;
You blend life, honey coated with caviar of love&#13;
You flourish many with a new fate&#13;
From Bessarabia to Bucharest&#13;
They walk with a glittering smile&#13;
A Philosopher, a Dentist and a Poetess&#13;
A complete package that could even&#13;
Melt Communism, without having&#13;
To drip innocent blood&#13;
I read your vivid words&#13;
Like Danube, it flows back to the Black Sea&#13;
The heart of Romanian&#13;
The place where you’d drown&#13;
All of your poems&#13;
Only to be read&#13;
As a history&#13;
When you’ve become a Legend&#13;
Marieta Maglas, save for the last&#13;
You’re in your own class&#13;
I beget your wisdom&#13;
To heal my conundrum&#13;
&#13;
&#13;

* Dedicated to Romanian Poetess, Marieta Maglas.</text>
