The good Lord was creating a model for the Army wife,
He was exhusted, and deep into his sixth day of overtime,
When an angel came to him and said, you seem to be having trouble,
Is this really that important, your so tried your seeing double,
He gave the angel a harsh look, have you seen the specks on this order,
She must be completely indenpented, and make twenty dollars out of a quarter,
She must process the ablity of both father and mother,
She must be able to heal herself, keep herself warm when there's no one to hold her
She must be the perfect hostess for 4 or 40 on a hour's notice,
She must handle every emergence imagenable, without the aid of a manual,
She must handle the homefront in the absents of her man, and she's got to have six hands,
Six hands procialmed the angel, your putting to much on her plate, she won't make it through the first date,
I'll give her an unusally large heart, so it can swell in her her husband's achviments,
Withstand the pain and seperation the army brings with it,
The ablity to carry on, even if she's pregnate, and has the flu,
And big enough, that even if she's sick, she can still say I love you,
The angel said, she looks weak, I'm scard she'll break,
The Lord smile, she has the stregth of the lion, she won't let anything stand in her way,
She must be able to take the ridicual of protesters, and not lose her cool,
She must be able to take the harsh reality of her husbanb's life being through,
The angel ran her fingers down the model's cheek, oh no she said, she has a leak,
The Lord glared at the angel, that's not a leak, that's a tear,
A tear my Lord, this is heaven what's it doing here,
The Lord sighed, it's for pride, love, pain and heartbreak,
Oh Lord your a genius, she will be perfect, and the angel left,
The Lord looked puzzled, ran his fingers through his long white hair,
That's strange, I never put it there.
Forever Faithful
The Phantom

After I read I couldn't walk so lemme talk
the poem is powerful, charged with passion.
In being demanding of our beloved we make a choice
I call that pride over reason but that's my reason.
(pride, love, pain, heartbreak) I understand
but I challenge pride as friend or foe, and the pain
there's enough of that in the World, who needs more?).
