A Soldier's Cry , my thoughts.

A Soldier's Cry

I'm in a bind, but I'm trying to live.
The days seem harder but I give and give.
With no take backs, I'm running on low.
The blessings come, the blessings go.
I try to find and make my way,
But I'm stranded here day after day.
With hope deferred and divine delay.
I seek for strength, I read, I pray.

Now I'm here close to despair wondering if somebody cares.
So, I reminisce on this and that wondering if I could go back.
Back in time and make right what's wrong.
Change my tune, change my song.
Nevertheless, that'll never be.
I'm stuck in time, I'm stuck with me.
Sadden and sullen, yes I'm in distress.
Having lost those years that I gave my best.

I'm running on low and the highways fast,
Intentional fouls so I've played my last.
Maybe today, something good would embrace me,
changing my way in the dark that enslaves me.

I'm hoping hard and it's not hard to give up,
I've got to shake this mud that so easily stuck.
So here I am on God's green earth,
thanking Him always for allowing my birth.
