I'll go to war for you tonight Won't let this rising horror keep you Arming up, I'll stand and fight I'll beat backwhat we knowis true For you You always were my only one It never happened Don't you trust me After all this time? I'll take the hit and roll for you Stand up, and look you in the eye I'll do what big, strong men will do When faced with love about to die I'll lie and lie and lie I know that I hurt you But I'll spend the rest of my life Making it up to you I'll never, ever lay down arms Won't let the looming real world keep you With all my tricks and all my charms I'll head of what you aim to do I love enough to lie for you I'd die before I hurt you again I promise You're the only truth I've got My anchor when I'm floating free With all we've been through, good or not Why can't you try,or lie for me? Just bury the bodies and let this be? I love you I need you ... Fine.I won't give up on you I'll brave one night, one shutting door Man the poems, arm the roses Remember what we're fighting for Knuckle up, boys. This is war.

Not much to say. I'm a father of four, working to keep my pygmies fat and happy. I have always liked Robert Frost, but a recent book that I'd stumbled across introduced me to John Donne.
