Trapped in this box
Constructed of fear
Day in day out she wonders
How the hell do I escape
This fear is so pointless
They are people
Like you and I
Trained to fight
To kill
Hiding the fear
Born of knowing they may die
Seemingly callous and cold
Every emotion has been switched off
Only to survive
To fear would be
To give the enemy the power
Looking deeper you might see
They love laugh and cry
Just like you and me
They are Marines
Such fear has been blinding
But they too deserve thanks
For keeping us free

I agree sean. I was never a marine but i was spec ops in the army. I have served side by side with alot of marines. I have the up most respect for all of or troops. I wish that i could go back. I got hit and sent home in 2003. I feel as if I was forced to leave my brothers.
