Us Marine Sniper

Specter of a Hero's Tortured Soul Forfeiting faith to successors to sacrifice self for others...he believes not in himself but his progeny... Eternal life and inflexible determination prevent waning love...his ceaseless adoration powerful to the point of self harm... Unwillingness to ever relinquish the shards of his heart...or the memory of possible fates... Soul scarred with unfathomable secrets and wounds...alone and concealed he is known to not even himself... Heart struggling to conquer inner demons and loss...mind overworked to find salvation from hell's burning wrath... Indescribable like smoke blown through trees on a moonless night... Intricately woven to be as substantial as the steam which fuels his passion... Never surrendering...never retreating...never giving in to any opposition... Steadfast and valiant he will never be conquered...unreadable and undecipherable...he will never be understood...
