Unknown Soldier

Unknown Soldier

The march is long,
The burden heavy,
Pain and tears unending.
Left me not alone.

Onward you go with me,
a step and yet another.
Future left unknown.

My food in times of hunger.
Warmth in rain and thunder.
A rock steadfast ye be.

Who are you I wonder.
I turn to ask the other.
Your name unknown to me.

My name is not what matters,
Though many I've been called.
Of names I'll tell you this.

Of alphas and omegas,
the morning, noon, and night.
My armor given to you,
helping in this fight.

So ask me not my brother.
Though son of mine ye be.
Beating heart within you,
residing there is me.
