It happens

by timothy cadwell   Oct 31, 2008


Clock hits 0500 and i awake in a hurry
out of focus so dark so blurry
i strap my boots, fast and tight
i awake in rage ready to fight
as the sun crawls slowly raises
once again sigh with no surprises
i take an angry deep breath
as my sandy surroundings sink in
miles off never ending tan ocean
i slowly drowned my exited fury
so disappointed no need to hurry
i walk to chow with my head hung low
wishing for a pain i did not yet know
i here a bang and then a intensely loud crack
every thing is silent as i slowly look back
a flash of light fallowed by a dark smoky glow
indirect fire falling like snow.
i run for shelter as i go condition one
my heart races as i foolishly think fun
i rush to aid the commencing ambush right
ill never for get those that died that night
jimmy jay with his hands of read.
still remembering the last words he said
Cameron ward suppressing with his saw
i was the one who found his jaw
bits and peaces of my fellow brothers
i cry in sympathy off their unsuspecting mothers
jimmy jay you owed me quite a few
but id give anything to tread fates with you
i held you close as my tears slowly washed the blood away
freedom had a price that day
i regret my foolish dream that came true
i blame my self threw and threw
left with no one to understand my past
i hold my gun close and stand fast
i slowly pull my cheep escape out of my grueling jaw
grab my bottle and think of the law
i fought for freedom that wasn't true
i lost every thing
i have nothing
i grip tight as i hope for the tunnel with a light
i did every thing for nothing
