The warrior poet collection The Weight We Carry offers an unflinching journey into the heart of conflict and camaraderie, sacrifice, and survival. With raw honesty, James David Watson examines holding onto humanity in the crucible of war and recounts the stories of those who endured and those who were lost. These are the lessons shared among warriors, the burdens carried alone, and the flames that never go out--a compelling tribute to the courage, struggles, and the bonds that remain.
