| The One He Didn't Name by Ashy God didn't give me a name, Nor a family, nor a home, He didn't give me any fame, Nor a future written in stone, Yet I am just a soldier, Whose wars must someday end, And I have many battle scars Which only time can mend. Now through the years, there's people, Who my empty heart defends, Some treat me as a brother, Some treat me as their friends. But there's one person who stands alone, Defying length of time, Whose soul is still reminding me, She fills my final rhyme. I dared to somehow trust her, And if my heart could feel, The tears that I could muster, Would never be concealed. I've told myself from being a boy, That life is never fair, Death, betrayal just happen, It's a cross you have to bear. And if our futures brought us, To the place in which we stood, And showed us what it taught us, I sometimes wish it would. And if I saw your face again, I'd see your colours true, Yes God didn't give me a name, Instead He gave me you. |
