12 Men
Blue Crystal Eagle
My Heart is fragile
Agile in her Musing –
Fraught with Adhesions
Doubt, Fears, and Reasons
To withdraw
I learned to love on a Battleground
Where volatile Mines
Were set down to trip
Me into Conformity
I lost small Pieces of my Mind
In hell-bent Skirmishes out of the Blue –
Always poised to defend my Self
I danced with the Devil on the front Lines
Resistance sent me Underground
But the Devil claimed his Due –
I laid down my Soul in Surrender
To a Power I hardly knew
I lost that Battle but won the War
Therein lay my Victory –
When I died to Death my Life was born
My Story began telling me.
