Today

The day I was let into this world.

A world full of never ending problems and challenges.

A world where one struggles to find peace and happiness.

To find love and salvation.

Today

The calm before the storm.

A time before I am sent to war.

Tiramisu in hand,

prepared with tender loving care,

with a farewell kiss I bid good bye,

hoping to return to this place I call home.

To everyone who wished me well,

Thank you.

For I am going into war.
