I Am A Soldier

Tony36

I am a soldier 

TThough I fight a different kind of war

 

Day by day  my inner demons come

Marching in line 

Banging on their drum

Flags waving 

Acting proud 

Ready to tear this poor man down

 

Day after day 

I fight 

I can't let them win

Each day's a victory 

Or sometimes a loss

Upon the waves of destruction 

My emotions get tossed

 

I know if I continue fighting 

If I never back down 

That in the end 

I shall win

 

I am a soldier 

Though I fight a different kind of war

                "March on through the wind, the rain, though your dreams be tossed and torn." From an old song. Nice one Tony.
