Army of One

It's a dangerous journey,
A bold career.

It takes courage and honor
With the absence of fear.

Every day is a struggle.
Every night, a prayer.

An unforgettable weight
Nearly impossible to bare.

A spark of innocence.
A world of deceit.

An empty soul on a crowded street.

The strength of ten
On the shoulders of one.

Complete determination to get the job done.

The heart of a hero;
A soldiers eye.

Fighting to live and willing to die.
