A body of steel and an expression of stone

A warrior of age nineteen travels alone

Through the mist and the trees that stand tall

He walks on and his eyes see through it all

His military uniform covered by rain

He's got nothing to lose and all to gain

The soldier's M16 is all he's got,

Not a sleeping bag nor a nice green cot

He believes what he's doing is right

He will run all day and march all night

The hairs on his head begin to feel cold

No cap on his head he still remains bold

Some think he's honestly going to die

And others think he is living a lie

He just ignores them and continues to walk

Ever aware like an airborne hawk

God is with him and so are his friends

He knows that life begins as childhood ends

Serving his country with a feeling of luck

He strides on and finally finds a truck

He checks his surroundings but no one is there

The truck bed is empty so he does what is fair

He lies down and begins to go to sleep

Caught in your eyes for all eternity as red and white rose petals fall from the sky. Shadows swimming through the night as I'm trapped in your warm embrace. The stars almost spinning with an erie white glow, now feeling almost as if I could fly.  Surrounded by a cloud of feathers as I see the smile upon your face. Floating in a room with no walls and my head feeling so light. Happiness overwhelms my body as we dance into the night. Your lips seem so soft as we kiss on a barbed wire plain. Dizzy with confusion and happiness while lying on your bed.  Running in water with a heavy heart, feeling as if you could faint at any moment. Captivated by this unknown world where nothing seems to make sense. The feelings I feel can't be explained but I am completely entranced. The love we share, a synthetic form of morphine for me almost drowning in the tears of joy upon our faces. This feeling, so unreal so paranormal and abstract, but I would loathe in its beauty forever. No care that the floor we stand upon melts into a world of passion and love. So much beauty, so much to be fascinated by. Somewhere new to explore. A world of everlasting happiness. Eternally floating and spinning into the people we want to become. Husband and wife.
