Roses for the Soldiers 

If i were there in arlington i'd lay a rose on each one of your graves 

to symbolize the love i have for you all 

But it wouldn't be enough.. 

Nothing i could ever do , would be enough ... just to say thankyou 

so many gone , some many young men , like in the wars before them .. 

Just like in vietnam the war .. that was so full of politics that .. the soldiers seemed to be forgotten .. 

We must never forget them , or forget thier scarifice as long as we live .. 

We must teach the new generation this .. 

Today this is so heavy on my heart .. 

And ones that lived , the brothers that lived they sometimes wish they didn't 

They carry that burden in thier hearts , trying to find a way to comes to terms with the loss.. thier guilt.. 

War is not a beautiful thing, like everything else in life it has its conscequences..

But i urge you to thank a soldier anytime you see one .. cause that one thankyou .. he will remember for a lifetime .. If u feel willing place a rose on a unknown soldiers grave just to give him the resepect he's due.
