My Brother
It's been too long brother
one of the fallen soldiers
it seems that many have forgotten you
but you tattooed upon my mind
Many believe you are erased from time
but your heart still beats
even though being miles away
you're never really far from loved ones
We don't look down upon you for your mistakes
god has forgiven you
we only hope the world does as well
and see you as we do
It hurts to be abandoned by kin
a pain that does not break the skin
but cuts the heart
The sun shines upon you
seeing you without walls is dream
waiting for you to come home
