I Want You Home © Jo McManus I cannot move I cannot speak I cannot waiver Say I'm weak I live in fear All day, all night For our troops And it ain't right Someone I love Is "over there" My heart is breaking Soul laid bare I want to cry and scream out loud We are united Please stand proud Yet my voice, no longer heard Those that mock Silence my word That we are free Because of wars Fought at home And foreign shores The casualties ran high today I cannot think I cannot pray I sit and write a poem or two in hopes that it Will get to you To let you know The sense of pride I feel for you And those who died I want you home Your head held high Unashamed Not asking "why" So do your job and I'll do mine Lie to all And say I'm fine The painting used to create this set is called "Spirit of Freedom" by Beverley Lu© Used with permission.
