Almost Alone

Forever rain & never clouds No 1 can help me now With shattered glass upon this pane I'll fall eternal for no more pain With teary eyes- my souls' alone Lost memories of home sweet home In fatigues tattered & torn The only soldier who was never born Faith has forgotten his pass glory Once given up all that is holy In crowded rooms I cry & yelp Often heard but never helped When tables turned- all certainly plea Never innocent, forgotten guilty Such a nice guy he proudly shows The actors is he. so kind & bold With body young & spirit wise Yet never resting- thriving to rise Bound by chains to this life Of lies & tries- the unending night Misguided youth with heartache crush Broken hearts were dealt of that royal flush Into the dark there lies some hope While devils grasp around his throat Always forward. Leap & bound I remembered- "once lost, but now I'm found..." Needing of nights with unsung prayers In He I trust and never fear These trying times will make quite weary Never seen this heart so dreary Has he lost his will to journey on Regreting the day that he was born Never, no NEVER will they lead astray Bless this creed till my dying day.
