Heroes Past

Hail,hail the  fallen heroes
All remembered by their brave exploit
I wonder what it is like
Having the opportunity to look death in the face
Is it fear or fun-
I trembled within but give kudos

"We live together,we die together"
They chant  as they march to the attack
Fear defied,but aim is one-victory!
As bullets sings past their head 
and their blazing bayonett shone their way throgh

Hunting lives as though game 
I wonder is it fear or fun
Knowing someone hunts yours too

Salute to the fallen heroes
Though thou died 
Every time makes our soul 
Thy suffering to remember
