A soldier's mantra

bywudelfin©

Baring the world on weary shoulders
Body molded to peek condition
Soul broken to be rebuilt
Mind shattered to be reconditioned

To protect country
Dignity in tatters but honor in tact

Country, duty, honor
Country is duty
Duty is honor
Honor is country
Forever bound
