Words of a Soldier
We who live
Will someday not
We'll lie in our graves
And sit
And rot
So give your life a purpose
A casket covered
With a flag unfurled
Take part in something
Remembered by the world
Do not fret over blood and tears
Don't let your hands tremble
After so many years
Be certain in your actions
Reminisce without regret
Trust me when I say
It's even worse to forget
