not stopped, but delayed

Oh, why June?
thy sorrow you gave thee,
Left me scared, forever marked!

The taste was of bitter hate.
Eating cold food in the arctic,
Made of love? As if!

Ye left my leg litter!
from your on slat!
Oh, forever marked!

I face a new challenge…
Maimed and marked,
A past suicidal,
Thanks to you!

I now must fight tooth and nail
Else I sulnt be given a chance
My goal? You ask…

I wish to be one of America’s best
A marine set for the test

You haven’t stopped me!
NO!
All you have done is delayed me!

I WILL become a marine!
Whatever it takes,
Because now it’s a long way down….
