Remembering the Blood

by Bored One   Jun 12, 2008


It is always in my mind,
The people who gave their lives,
The men, the women,
Holding their weapons close,
As if it truly was their life,
Keeping it to their heart,
Giving them unbeatable courage,
To overcome the fear of death,

I beg of you,
Remember them,
Their sacrifice,
It was for you,
The blood they shed,
And blood they spilled,
Only they know which stain burns longer,

Listen to their cries,
Listen to their songs,
Listen to their stories,
Listen to their words,
Listen to their sorrows,
Listen to their pride,
Listen when they ask.
