Unhand me

Woke up sweating in last nights clothes.
Can every morning start like this?
Humid air as thick as the thoughts I've been having lately.
Bound to break open in a thunderstorm soon.
Your name in lights.
I'm out of this fight.
I'm deserting the company.
I'm leaving behind the battalion.
Hoping for peacetime.
This is my dishonorable discharge.
I'll be waiting out the war.
