i loved you through the war, when you had bullets for teeth and they blew your mouth to smithereens. i loved you when your kiss  tasted like gunpowder and aching. i loved you when your kiss tasted like other men's blood.  i loved you when they put a red stamp between your eyes put a stutter in your heartbeat put a halt to that thousand yard stare i still loved you when the war ended, and i loved you when you ended before it.
