Try me, come on
Stab my back and see
I’m made of blood and bone
I may even gasp
When the blade melts
Through my flesh.
…Not that I have feelings.

‘Cause I just fight
To win the battle
And I ache to see you soar.
I just cry
For strength in sorrow,
Praying mercy will be yours.

But it’s ok,
To stab my back
Or leave me to defend myself.
My swords streak of silver
Will be there,
When you reach danger.

And I’ll fight…
I’ll win the battle.
I’ll help to your feet.
My body painted
By my blood,
Will never face retreat.


- And so it was that time stood still -
     (blink, breathe, stand, fight)

loner,
thanks for the whoa! I'm glad you liked you. a gidday to you.

Sey sir,
glad you enjoyed. And thank you for the well done, much appreciated

Pat,
you've said alot thank you for the awesome and.. I think I write to remind myself I'm fighting. And, I guess I do. hugs and love.

now about the whole thing. Its written pretty much in regards to someone who's 'suppose' to be helping, but is instead stealing from me and lying to me. But someone I'm not necessarily in the position to show 'tough love' to. So instead I show them what it means to fight, I guess, and pick them up when they fall.

Always, Alyssa

Noah,
thank ya! I'm honored to be called a warrior, and yes, there is much mercy shown.. always has been, but things just aren't working. Guess it takes more than my realization, but hers too!

Aenimal,
I think someone saying they wish they wrote it is about the best compliment you can get, especially from such a great writer. Thank you very much!!

Jason,
My Hero never lost or retreated either, and I fight for Him. But the word battle and fight still mean blood scars and stabs. So, here I stand! Thanks much! honored you love it.

Always, Alyssa

littlewing,
I have faith that what Someone else is true.. apart from that the courage and faith in myself is nothing.. well, apart from that I am nothing. So, thats where I get my power from. Thanks muchly!

Ethel,
thank you so much. I only write in order to get my feelings down, 'cause I'd go crazy if they stayed inside my head without me knowing what they were! They don't all pour so smooth though, sometimes it really is indescribable. But I am honored you'd find me gifted and with talent.. again, thank you hugs to you.

Always, Alyssa
