Hopeless.

You try to shackle me down.
I already am shackled.
Your voice commands my moves,
and I attempt to protect you.
You take the blows,
as I plan out the battle.
I will protect you with my life.
I will not let you down.
I am your Fighter, this is what I was born to do.
You are the Sacrifice,
this is how we were made.
I will fight for you,
you will heal me back up.
I will keep you safe,
and you will not allow me to abandon my post.
Marines stay at their post.
So do I.
Because I have endured more than any other Marine,
and you more than any other commander.
For together,
we are Fighter and Sacrifice,
Protector and Protected,
we are,
Hopeless.
