Fear Over My Shoulder's
To many innocent lives are dying for our nation,
bombs exploding into foreign land's.
The broken hearted loosing a husband, or a son,
while we try to do the best we can.
Security on our border's to keep away the enemies,
but they are already living here spying on us.
The President signing different treaties,
rules, and changed regulations to be cautious.
Traveling in airplane is now a nightmare,
personal item's being removed or prohibited.
Schedule made before check the list prior,
or you may not be able to get boarded.
The war in another land may last for many year's,
we send more men over there from USA.
Patiently the families pray they will return here,
that this will all end someday.
We walk our town's, our cities, our subways.
Perhaps's we may find some peace when it's over.
Until we able to live without doubt everyday,
we face upon our tomorrow's with fear over our shoulder's.
