In this crazy world where do I begin?
Stuck between the law and sin...

Dreams of her keep me asleep
Hauntingly beautiful and gentle...

I feel myself begin to fade,
A smell of stagnant fear hangs in the air...

Fear, an inordinate response
A reaction to what is unknown...

I have always been a fighter
Fighting to become stronger...

I gave it my all
Tried to stand tall...

Tomorrow knows not what it holds
Only certain of it's uncertainty...

It feels as though it's been an eternity since I...
Seeking a damsel in distress...

I sit here in disbelief
Its been years since I've looked in the mirror...

Pick me up, through me down
Do what you will with me Life...

A soldier in Iraq dusts the sand off his ACU's
Remembering how his best friend died and wished it...

Life is a journey
One of many trials and tribulations...
