[ Whatever Decision He Makes ]
[ She Agrees ]
[ The Smile On Her Face Tells Me That She Has So Much
To Say ]
[ All About This One Man That Has Been Nicknamed (TREY) ]
[ Not The Kind That You Serve Food On ]
[ Dani’s Trepidation That She Had About The (C) Word ]
[ Is Now, Long Gone ]
[ Until Roosevelt Came Along, There Had Never Been A Man That
Dani Would Trust With Her Heart ]
[ Now She Does Not Like The Hours & Minutes When They Need
To Be Apart ]
[ I Had Never Heard A Man Call My Friend (BABY) ]
[ If I Would Have Asked Dani If This Would Have Happened (9)
Months Ago ]
[ She Would Not Even Give Me A (MAYBE) ]
[ Sometimes I Rub My Eyes To Convince Myself That This
Was Happening, Before My Very Eyes ]
[ When They Exclaim Sweet Nothings ]
[ Neither One Is Telling The Other One (LIES) ]
[ Roosevelt Seems Like A Good Man With Strong Convictions ]
[ From What I See, He Is Now Dani’s New Addiction ]
[ Dani Has Never Been Seen Here With A Man On Her Arm ]
[ Besides Me ]
[ She Trusts That This Man Was Not Going To Cause Her
Any Harm ]
[ I Told Dani In The The Past ]
[ That Our Friendship Would Last ]
[ Dani Has Had My Back On Many Occasions ]

Complete ]

[ Roosevelt Has Never Needed To Whisper A Single Day Of
His Life ]
[ I Guess Dani Knows, If He Hangs To The Left Or To
His Right ]
[ I Count Three Words That I Can Describe Him When He Is
Here, They Are (RESPECTFUL), (QUIET) & (HUMBLE) ]

Mumble ]

On The Fields Of Battle ]

[ It Seemed Like Most Of The Soldiers Were Not Rattled ]
[ A Steady Hand When They Were Firing Their Guns ]
[ The Brave Soldier Rarely Runs ]
[ They Were There For Battle, Only ]
[ Most Of The Soldiers That Died ]
[ Died Cold & Lonely ]
[ Most Never Saw It Coming ]
[ The Numbers Were Mind Numbing ]
[ There Is No One More Loyal Person Than A Soldier Defending The
Only Country That They Have Ever Loved ]
[ That Is The Place Where They Have Not Felt Snubbed ]

[ So We Won’t Live In A Country Where People Who Speak
Their Minds Are Bound & Gagged ]

Very Fun ]
[ The Soldier ]
[ As They Grow Older ]
[ Feels Like Others Are So Ungrateful ]
[ & They Also Become Increasingly Forgetful ]

History Books ]
[ The Soldier Is Our First & Last Line Of Defense ]
[ So When It Comes To Studying History ]
[ The Word (SOLDIER) Should Be In The First & Last Sentence ]

Being Free ]
