Fight Only
Fear of the unknown
Our lives undone
Fire burns on
But the hero doesn't run
Facing the flames
He calls out his loved ones names
No room for loss
But loss is sometimes exactly the cost
Maybe sometime the hero should run
Maybe the soldier puts away his gun
Why waste bullets on this
It can all be healed
By just one kiss
A soft touch to the wrist
Causing a smile to appear
Then only fight to keep it there
Fight only to keep it there
Unknown to fear
-Elane Taylor-
