Part 1
***
The Unexpected Path
Orders lead me on.
Roads I never thought to walk.
Purpose found in dust.
***
Calm Within Chaos
Gunfire fades to breath.
A still mind in the madness.
Calm between heartbeats.
***
Life’s Delicate Balance
Armour on, heart soft.
Strength and fear walk side by side.
Balance forged in fire.
***
Woven Brotherhood
Laughs, loss, silent nods.
Threads of lives stitched into one.
Brothers stand as one.
***
Embrace the Unknown
New ground under boots.
Change comes with each dawn we face.
Step into the dark.
***
Rhythm of the March
Bootsteps drum the earth.
Hearts beat in a steady line.
Marching into fate.
***
Hidden Lessons
Scars beneath the kit.
Lessons learned in silent watch.
Wisdom earned, not told.
***
Turning Deployments
Tours come, tours will end.
Stories carried home within.
Chapters etched in time.
***
Steady in the Storm
Rain, fire, and long nights.
Hold the line through every storm.
Strength stands unbroken.

Baptism of Life
Raindrops on dry earth,
Quenching the thirst of nature,
Life's baptismal gift.
