Veteran
Veteran
we left the comfort of home
relied on the eyes of the drone
repelled the hate of your enemy
and the harsh words that were said to me
you will always have scares
when you fall that hard
it is what we do with the healing
to take this life and its beginning
from the debit of our oath
civilian or soldier we owe them both
we Honor the Veteran today
remember and thank them
because no one knows the miles
we put on our boots
and the souls that pounded
ground, air and sea
so don’t take for granted the freedoms we
breathe for every breath was the last for the brave
