Soldier

by Alexis   Sep 2, 2005


A nation under attack,
A world at war.
A nation whose pride was thrashed,
A world that is crying out for more.
A man with difficult decisions to make.
A media that is scrutinizing every step that he takes.
A certain cause for a certain fight.
Young men and women sign up to secure our rights.
They pack their bags and leave their homes,
Ready to fight the enemies of those who cannot fight their own.
Sacrifice, that they�re ready to make.
Drastic chances that they�re ready to take .
Remembering all their country men that died that day .
Remembering all the families that were lost and left astray.
Dieing.
Fighting.
Bleeding and,
Protecting, for the the country that they call their own.
A soldier, fighting so that others have a place to call home
