The D Word

this, this word. mmm this word we don't like.

this word doesn't do us any good.

this word can hurt us.

this is the D word.

none other than,

Deployment.

a word that none of us can really begin to handle.

well, the word could be handled,

the actual meaning of the word, not so much.

it means so many different things

but different things to different people

it can mean loneliness

it can mean craziness

it can mean sadness

depression

hurt

abandonment

soo many different things

sometimes theres no tellin what it will do each time around

they say first deployments the hardest,

but that doesnt mean it gets any easier.

theres people to deal with

everyday lives to deal with

problems to handle alone

drama to solve

theres a lot of factors

but being with that one person,

seeing

talking to

texting

emailing

that one person, nothing tops that.

dealing with the D word, well,

that all depends on how you handle things.

the thing to remember is that were strong.

its all a learning experience.
