The Undertow

U exit without saying goodbye
 and leave a trail of destruction in your wake
 Their is only so much,
 a heart can take
 Until that levy brakes...

We build on in remembrance mode
 And face reality with brave bravado
 Acting up
 Acting out
 Because I have something to prove
 With blown up chests
 And swaggering legs
 We strut on...

In this loosing streak,
 I lost u

Now I'm in a rat race
 for one days sake
 Where worth,relates to work
 And nothing is ever enough

On every other day
 When the sweat drips from my brow
 And strength leaves my body
 Staining clothes
 I remember you
 And I dig deep
 Have promises to keep

A memory to honor

And a reason to be free.

(In memory of Romauld)
