Once upon a time
Not so long ago
I trusted them
They were the good guys
Nothing to fear
Unless your the enemy of course
But now that no longer holds true to me
The good guys turn bad easily
Committing violent acts on fellow Americans
A woman no less
This notion frightens me terribly
Green matching uniforms
No longer provide a sense of safety
That sense was replaced
Darkened by fear...
If one must fear the protectors of our country
Who can we trust?
My very best friend
So strong and confident
Was rendered helpless
By one of those monsters
I cannot help this fear
Nor can I trust
Freedom defenders
Not for a long time
