Blowing Caution Into the Wind
Since nothing has truly happened,
can't assume the danger, isn't there.
Especially, when your a targeted soldier,
and the enemy, could be anywhere.
For they are there, when least expected.
When not given a second thought.
Then suddenly upon the victim, they attack,
giving them, all that they got.
Relentless are they without doubt,
no mercy, is there, in their heart.
That is why us soldiers prepare,
ourselves, from the very start.
For the sake of the soldier beside us,
fighting terrorists, committing, many a crime.
Must be ready for anything,
by not blowing away caution, at any time.
