12 Men
Blue Crystal Eagle
My Heart is fragile
Agile in her Musing---
Full of 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 myself
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.
