This is a ...... i forget what they're called but it's a specific type. Villanel maybe? Same thing as "Tygre Tygre Burning Bright"
Freedom; but what for?
Can a story be pulled from the twisted form
Of the soldier who lost the fight?
Freedom, but what for?
Two men in uniform walk up to a door
The woman crumples at their sight.
Can a story be pulled from the twisted form?
No one could give their country more;
For freedom her husband gave his life.
Freedom, but what for?
The casket is lowered to the dirt floor
Draped in stars and stripes.
Can a story be pulled from the twisted form?
The home, a shell of what it was before
Heartbreak’s tears flood each night.
Freedom, but what for?
A widow and now single mother of four
The family’s flame crippled, but “America’s light shines bright.”
Can a story be pulled from the twisted form?
Freedom, but what for?
