My Word and My Trust

I stand in the middle and fight for what's right... I was taught to be a gentlemen and honor all women... I don't live behind a cloudy screen where the reality is never seen... I write with passion of love and peace but the war of words still is a tease... I don't carry a torch or lead a witch hunt.. But I will stand up for friend and not for a stunt... I came into this world with my word and my trust... Both have been tested but my heart will never rust...
