scared but STRONG


I am strong but §çàRëD.... I wonder when this place will feel like HØM₤...... I hear shots fired & scream of... T£RRØR.... I see FĪR€ in a BIG Glåzë going over BLØØD, PËØPLÊ & ÊVËRŸTHĪÑG... I want it to §TØP, the §ÇRËÅMĪÑG of TÊRRØR, the FØØT§TËP§ of MANY GØÑĒ... I am scared but strong .... I pretend to see the LÅŪGHT₤R and JØŸ of MÃÑŸ I feel the ŧH˧ going through my body Like KÑĪÉV˧ PĪËRÇĪÑG ĪÑ.. I touch the WØŪÑDËD, and many tears are already GONE . I worry ÄLL will ÑËVËR see the LIGHT .... I ÇRŸ ÄLØÑË.. in the darkest place filled with LاT SOULS I am scared but strong ... I understand some will die today for what is RIGHT I say go at PEACE .. and make it like those summer day of RICHNE§§... I dream of GĪGGL˧ and dad's and mom's arriving.. HØMĒ I try to contain these T₤ÅR§.. I WILL TRY TO MAKE IT I HOPE i'll see home soon. for I AM At WAR, supporting what is right .. I AM SCARED but STRONG
