Army Strong


Army strong isn’t the correct term to

define yourself. Teddy bear type of guy.

Shy, sweet, funny was what you were before

you became army strong.  I guess the guard

told you to guard up your feelings in the

100 degree weather, full armor.

Molded you into a new person, your

personality changed within one year.

Your physique changed within one year, ripped up.

Your artwork changed within one year…on hold.

Your friends changed within one year, distant now

Your choices changed within one year, follow dad

Your life changed within one year…not a boy

You changed within one year…more of a man
