Book Cover & Preview Text
The clouds are full of broken tears Falling upon us all There are many running out of the rain But I would rather watch and walk As the rain keeps coming down Nothing happens without consequences Especially after 1000 o'clock Determination fills those warriors Looking for a victorious night As the night gets darker and the rains gets colder Only the desperate souls would go out tonight Out to break the records set passed the thresholds of normal mortals Nothing of value comes past 1100 o clock this night

About the Book
This is a poetry book I finished after writing many poems while stationed in BAF Afghanistan. I can never fully explain my experiences but everyone sees life and moments differently. I added some of my works from before and after so some you will figure out that I was not in a desert and some you may not know like free preview and yes it does rain even in the desert but was I there are was I somewhere else I cannot remember.
