Veterans
Veterans have the right
to stand up and say what's wrong,
so many years of hurt
tears have fallen for too long.
They have lost many friends
not only long ago, but for years since then,
it seems, truly as though
the government doesn't care about them.
The veterans deserve to be heard
not hushed up and thrown away,
I know the government will never listen
neither in the future, nor today.
