I am the medic
The stoic but caring one
I was taught to distance myself
But that was never enough
I wanted to help
Even though everyone
Only see me as a kid
Yes I'm naïve
But I'm resourceful
I'm not a waste
But I took care of others
For too long
Now I'm searching
For someone to comfort me
Take care of me
Instead of the other way around
I may wear that mark
But I'm not ready
To be completely selfless
I had to be strong though
And it felt like my heart
Splitting every time
I wanted to just let go
Depend on him
I didn't want to wander off
But I was being proud
I secretly was impressed
That he wanted to save me
He could have let me die
But I had a feeling
That his heart was tainted
But not completely corrupt
We fought against one another
Saying we didn't need each other's life
On the others hands
But in the end we did
I didn't want to leave him there
That salute took more out of me
Than the entire day had
Every bit of energy
Went into walking away
To not walk back to him
Rush to him
But I had gave him
Another chance
I just hoped he would
Get the chance
To live it out
I continued ahead
But that metal
Burned my neck
Knowing he had worn those
That he was there with me
Just let us see one another again
Someday in the future
That is all
I could wish
Before I wished
The past day away
