Unknown
I wish just one knew
One was close enough to confide in
To Love
I’ve done more than most will ever do
In their entire lives
Yet I feel like a failure
I failed to find Love
Marriage
I failed to carry on my name
Have kids
But I’ve traveled the world
Visited the Holy Land
Fought wild land fires
Fought in combat
Saved Lives
Took Lives
Got a Medal
Jumped from planes
Ridden Bulls
Held my 8 Seconds
Ridden my Horse into the Sunset
Hiked into the unknown
Gave my Heart to JESUS
Have a Heart full of Love
Yet I feel unknown
Unloved by the world around me
I mean to say women
They know not who I am
They only see the Dancer
The Romantic
The Marine
A Fire Fighter or Cowboy
Anything but who I really am
What will it take
To be known
I’ve hung up my sword
I’ve put away my dancing boots
What more will it take, to be known
Loved
