"I Once Was, I Am"

I once was a passerby, you never saw, keeping my eyes cast to the ground,
afraid of looking at you, of seeing what had you bound.

Now, I am the one who meets your gaze, with courage newly found,
My spirit is an open book, speaking words you may find profound.

Before the moment is gone, be sure to apply the balm to your eyes,
applying it to your soul, where wisdom will arise,

   My Solder, make way, gather your weapons at my word, be full of courage, always in control, not given to insanity, dormant in the soul. I am with you no matter where u go. ©
