Make Him a Soldier

Make him A Soldier Make him a soldier so I won't cry anymore Transform a boy to a man so he will stand...alone In the dark forest beaming as natural combustion of dusk in the sky Red blood running through our veins is the same identical as if we share the same DNA And even as a child I couldn't deny how our hearts beat the same Rate pulse pace...boom it startled me but as I gaze in his eyes I felt a deep connection as if he knew me better than I knew myself White Our love is so pure and shall never be tampered and even if life tries to poison us we will always have each other pure love Blue water a million miles away from me and as he travels from sea to sea I think of him daily I try to remember where we came from blue water shared space different times Blossomed from a tulip where our petals do not vary and the sepals seem to follow a course set to sail So I beg you Make him A soldier so I won't cry an ocean of tears Transform a boy to a man so he will stand beside me in my darkest hour. Help me to raise my head when he is long gone from here When my fears are red my soul turns blue let me remember the purity of us how I loved a my brother a man of red, white and blue!
