Poems

Alone in the morning, alone in the night, a single lone soldier…must fight with all my might

This once carefree soul, now troubled and down…stapling on the smile…fighting to hide the frown

“You deal with it all so well�…Oh how they could barely tell…how it all truly affects me

Can’t lose the battle, can’t show a tear…must stay positive, must fight back all fear

My comfort is knowing that I’m not alone…there are other warriors like me…battle weary…roaming this lonely road

I like your poem.  I have felt that way too.  Thank you for sharing it.

Nicely put, Gary.  We are a little road weary, aren't we?   :-\
