The Battle Within
By Aspen
Every day I fight with myself
With the sense of duty that I feel
I know that I can’t ignore it
Or push it away
But it scares me to think that
It’s not just a phase or
Something that will just go away
I try to bury it but its always there
In the center of my heart and thoughts
It comes with some ups
And some downs
But which outweighs the other
It makes having a family hard
And can hold the ultimate price
But serving my country
Is what I want to do
What I have always wanted to do
So, Is this my destiny
Or am I just trying to convince
Myself that it is?
