THE WARRIOR


    Dressed for battle, he stands ready to fight, the warrior,


       Fear lives within him fore this emotion brings wisdom.


           Strong as he fights for that which he believes,


       A lonely way of life but a man makes a choice, a stand.


       A family, not In this souls' plans, born to walk alone,


       This chosen way that may haunt Is just a house of cards.


  It's not said that a bad man Is he, quietly the sun rises for him,


   This path chosen, a quiet one If those choose to let It be not a fight.


     Always ready for battle, though silently lives In the shadows,


      This wanting to be left In peace man Is a warrior on his own.
