Array ( [sid] => 56203 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Brave Soldier [time] => 2004-07-14 20:14:53 [hometext] => [bodytext] => In his heart he holds courage,
In his hands he holds our lives.
A Brave Soldier he may be, but only at the the front lines.
He is weaken by all the death,
He is haunted by there souls.
For he knows in this battle, hatred rules one's goal.
He does not fight for hatred,
He fights for there lives instead.
Cause he knows hatred has no value, when so many are dead.

As he lays in death, knowing it will come,
He glances at the sky and makes peace with all he's done.
For on the battlefield, life is as precious as gold.
And one must always choose should it be friend or foe?
He closes his eyes and hopes in his death no more victums will fall.
But, in his heart he knows his country one day will call.
For A Brave Soldier to take the front line and give there life as he,
He just hopes all are content knowing A Brave Soldier he will always be.

A Brave Soldier

In his heart he holds courage,
In his hands he holds our lives.
A Brave Soldier he may be, but only at the the front lines.
He is weaken by all the death,
He is haunted by there souls.
For he knows in this battle, hatred rules one's goal.
He does not fight for hatred,
He fights for there lives instead.
Cause he knows hatred has no value, when so many are dead.

As he lays in death, knowing it will come,

But, in his heart he knows his country one day will call.
For A Brave Soldier to take the front line and give there life as he,
He just hopes all are content knowing A Brave Soldier he will always be.

very good poem. It is very hard to be in the military and seeing death all around you. Squad member one day, another # on the death count the next. The love of my life is a marine, been to iraq once and is goin back again. Im scared to death because I already lost a friend at 19 years old. He was over in iraq fighting. He didnt want to die a hero, just wanted to come back home. But these soldiers do more than serve our country. They put their lives on the line to save and fight for what we have to keeep it psosible for us! May all the soldiers who have died RIP and may god be with all the soldiers overseas or going back overseas and see that they come home alive to their family and friends!
