For Certain

​We have been here before.
The scars from, bloody skin,
aches from the broken bones
show that we have survived.
Another battle is nothing
when fought with determination.
This is for certain.
 
Forces outside of our control
have crept in vying
for everything we think is important.
The evil does not know
how misguided it truly is.
 
It is seeing cracks
in our human foundation.
Basic challenge is being challenged
due to unexpected panic
amongst the confused few.
 
We have conquered in the past.
History is littered with these battles
with what has been considered
larger, more brutal foes.
 
The beatings are real
and the pain will last
with us after the fight.
Sacrifices are to be expected.
This is war.
 
It has been proven
when we battle together
as one unified unit
that evil clouds disappear
as long as our arms are connected.
Victory, over the long haul, will happen.
That, when combatted with the human spirit,
is for certain.
