Darkness

The sun is shining bright,
But everything I see is dark,
I know I'm happy,
but I feel nothing.

I take pleasure from life,
but that life is taking pleasure from me,
I do the things I enjoy,
and yet I feel nothing.

I strive to show you the silver lining,
but I can't see it myself,
I want to make you happy,
to mask my own pain.

I just don't see the point,
All of the things I love,
All of the thing I enjoy,
They just don't mean anything.

I bask in every ray of sunshine,
and I feel the cold hit me,
I just can't see the light anymore,
and the darkness calls to me.

Push the Taliban out of the area, set up strong points throughout the area to hold down the area we've cleared, and provide security for the engineers moving behind us that where clearing roads/removing IED's (basically DIY landmines). Now, Olivas and ...
