I roam through this pathway of life's gravesite
The air is calm upon the rubblestone,
Where buried reveries no longer stray
For those who left a tired, embattled world.
How they lay at rest unknown or unsung
Decreed by time, wait in mercy of God,
And medals pinned on this, this heroes' ground
To sleep with glory, as only they can.
