[hometext] => This is for anyone during any war we have fought. I hope you all like it
[bodytext] => --------________------------- Alone we stood together my friend, yet we just met protecting everyone forever memories I shall never forget Unknown, He was 27 going on life A brand new baby on the way 10 years, and he still burned for his wife A million miles away, He protects them still today They draped ribbons on a tree for him Familes burning candles everynight Forever praying for his saftey As he risks himself for their life Battle rages on, Planes and bombs filling these skies Running, blinded by this starless night Fear filling in my eyes As we head towards another fight In the blink of an eye Our worlds passed by Standing alone, Alive, still with my life He lies bleeding, saving me he will now die I drop to my knees, and clutch his hand draped of blood How in his final moment, tears fill his eyes Gasping for his final breaths, word clutterd like a raging flood "Promise me" he asked with pride; "You tell them why I died" At a loss for words, I easily agree trembling and shaking, he utters his final words Grasping my hand tight, as he stares at me His face filling with death, his eyes soaring like birds "Tell them I fought for freedom" "That I died for them, as I died for my country" "Tell them I loved them every moment, and everyone yet to come" "I lived every second for them, and to do the same for me!" He was 27 going on life He died in my arms on the battle field that night He died for everyones husband and everyones wife His life gone for mine, so I can continue the fight! God bless all our men and women For they protect our freedom everyday Many have died over the years So we can live with freedom THE ULTIMATE SACRAFICE? THEY GAVE THEIR LIFE!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
