Working title 4


Shoulders tired Legs getting weak The last man standing of three Called to duty young Carrying hopes and dreams None of your own But made your own Only to cast a towering shadow Standing inside and outside as others look from a distance the separating stare That makes a bright model of you And a dark trouble of yourself
