The sentinels stand guard

Not knowing whether to hide or take flight

Life in this world is hard

But onward we fight

That which surrounds me is dark and dim

Whenever my thoughts roam and dwell on him

I walk through this world as though a nightmare

Because not one soul around me seems to care

This world that seems so cold

Although I know there is good in it too

I continually attract those who make me want to fold

But my determination to succeed is akin to Kung Fu

I look back on my years and I see lessons learned

Continually stretching my arms for that one missing link

Everyday it seems I am constantly burned

By cold hearted souls that will crush you in a blink

When will it all end?

It’s getting harder to defend

Still the message I do send

God make this world mend

The sentinels stand guard

Not knowing whether to hide or take flight

Life in this world is hard

But onward we fight.
