always going, never retreating

I keep you in my mind
I recheck and double check myself
I am not alone here, my brothers are with me
A short walk in a long run.

I take a moment to reflect
My expectations are simple
Stay alert, Stay alive
Our watchword made bible stern.

I pick up my life ender
Yes, ready to go and do
My hands were made for healing
My mind is set to kill.

I look back one last time at the encampment
We move quietly and quickly
We are self assured and right in our righteousness
With my hand on the trigger, I say my good-byes.
