War what  did you to to the soliders ?

what did you force them to see ?

You made them carry weapons you made them fight 

you made them see others die .. 

You made thier hearts cold sometimes 

You made them weary 

You took away thier innocence 

You took  so much... .. 

Some of them can't sleep at night , with horror the've seen  in thier days .. 

Some of them never seem to adjust to be being home again 

Can't adjust to being safe .. 

War your a cruel thing !

If i  could yell and scream at you i would .. I'd kick you in the balls if i could

i'd want to hurt, hurt you for all you've done .. 

You have taken away so many sons , so many brothers , so many fathers 

You taken away so many limbs , so many fingers .. so many things ..

Sitting down after after you were gone .. 

I knew my soldier was different ..

He'd never be the same again .. 

But War i  blame you ... 

I will never fight for war .. because i know what it costs .. 

But i will stand behind every soldier if it does..

So next time you think a soldiers family doesn't go through much  or gets  off easy 

Remember these lines ...

A soldier is always a soldier till he dies..

they paid the price , a price too dear .. 

just ensure that we are still here .. 

some lost limbs , many lost thier lifes.. 

some lost thier minds , war is cruel 

war is blood 

war is death 

War is not glamourous , Nor should it be.. 

its easy to care on veterans day , and forget the rest of the year.

war is pain 

war is loss 

you can win at one and still lose .. 

lots of casualites 

children of veterans , wifes of veterans ,family members of veterans , and of course the veterans themselves lose the most 

and yet we gain the most from them .. 

BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

I sit humbly remembering all that i saw that day .. things u never see on tv .. things that soliders see every day in combat . and people that live in countries that are torn by pain and civil war. I watched the news all day that day. i was glued to it. i was in state of shock i was in Australia worrying About my fiancee at the times family .his Mother living inbrookyln , his father driving the trains through New york City , and his borther somewhere there and his cousins . Oh God my heart was filled with so much pain and worry . and i couldn't get through for days i remember it taking about a week to get though and try and locate his mother for him .. as he was currently stationed in Korea at the time and i took it as my hourable duty to find them and any inofrmation about them that i could. I knew that people trapped were still using thier cell phones so that they could be found .. so i let them go first ..and let the people who were right there try to find thier families first . 

I will forget that day war brought to our streets . i will never the heroes , not caring if they lost thier lives to save others. I call them the civilian soliders. Becuase on that they all were. The unity between people was strong .. strangers helped strangers . people who would otherwise never met , met . 

Our lives lives changed forever that day . Gone was the sensation of this could never hapen here . And born was the fear of when it would happen again . I remember it like it was yesterday . We all have our stories . each one as precious as the last ..lets share today and heal a little .. cry if we need to , hug and comofort others that need it .
