Soldiers Poem by Dean Morris

Soldiers



If you were ever put in a heavy situation
would you be overthrown by rising anticipation

When it comes to the point of no return
would you defend for yourself and leave the rest to burn

Looking back at all the tragedy and pain you've caused
you wouldn't receive a single 'thank you' let alone a applause

Why do you enjoy hearing the sounds of cries
Then watching people drown in their own lies

I can't seem to understand
why there is individuals trying to destroy our land

If we are all equal and thought of as one
Why is there war every rise and fall of the sun

innocent people vanishing into the dark
they are the people that make it possible for kids to play at the park

Risking their own lives, for a better tomorrow
their families and friends are left with feelings of sorrow

The ones who have past, will always be hero's
we all need to be able to remember, and be able to teach those

About the soldiers, who have gone to rest
and those who have been put through the test

War is something that will be with us throughout eternity
So much hate and lies, and not enough purity

I dont know what is going to become of us,
We all need to move with our lives, and believe in those that we trust
