True Blue





True Blue



The job is full of long hours, rude thankless souls.
Constant watching never trusting, each night is something new,
always learning just how trustful people are, so different from what you once knew.
There would be no honors if you die on duty, no seven gun salute.
No flag across your coffin, just another poor soul to take
your shift and begin watching.
The badge they carry stands for so much more than anyone knows.
Defending others property, their lives
and there homes.
There is no glory in it's ranks,
just hard working men and women.
Rain sleet hail or snow
they go out to fight the never ending battle
of wrong and right.
Their eyes see this worlds most hateful
evil souls, the worlds most fearful citizens
they go on day by day no this job is not worth it's pay
, the greatest pay is in the eyes of the people who feel
safer when they are on duty.
They aren't cops or Texas Rangers,
They don't make much money for helping
strangers. They are Security officers, earning a living in the
darkest shadows of America's largest cities.
Officers that lay their lives down Backing the badge.
They are Officers....
True blue.....
