A Man by Maria Terezia Ferencz
Through pain we cannot know, bravely you will go
walking on....a man
To face the greatest foe
the cold nights of the soul
One never knows the plan
still strong and tall...a man
no heat of fire nor fear of death
will ever steal the breath
that breathes the light inside
the gray of life
the dark of night
all you will abide
doing so
all that you know
walking on...a man
