Forget Me Not

They all wanted to be “Real men” So off into the cruel seas they go In a big scrap of metal.. Might as well be going to their coffins.. And so they did, i never saw them again.. And when i think of them, all i can see is the pain and suffering they had been experiencing I wanted to be a real man too. So off into the fields of sand I go.. The skies were a dark indigo. And i look down at the ground below My feet And I see A small blue forget me not.. Lying dead on the sand.. And then I too, lie on the sand.. I have fought wars in my head And wars with my gun I have buried my friends Because they wanted to be “Real men” Forget me not solider. For i am your dearest friend
