Purple Heart

I remember the night
some time ago 
that we were happy
my brother was coming home

I remember that he said 
that he'll be back some day
well that day has came
and I can no longer wait. 

but I had to wait
he didn't show
only the men
who were below

they said to me
in a way
that made a mess
swept away

my brother went away
and died
he was fighting for us
to save our lives

he was a soldier 
like marines, airmen, and coast guards
that was it
the whole nine yards

but they are strong 
and they always are
because they are men 
with the purple heart

there gave there everything
there is never a fail
they stand strong 
a strength we hale

hale our love and 
hearts to all
to those who fly and those
who fall

A Memorial To All

to remember is 
never to forget
it's a day of love
and quite a bit
 
Focus on the fallen
and hear them 
calling out
to speak their stories
out loud

the people who 
fought to keep us alive
every day we 
know they tried

some succeed 
some failed
we remember them all
to all we hail

hail our love
and heart's to all
to those who fly and
those who fall

The Meaning of the Flags With Stars

See the flag
with two stars
in the white
surrounded by heart

honor pride
courage and love
the whole package from above

god is here
in us all
in the soldiers
who rise and fall

give your love 
and warm hearts
to the men away
doing their part

See the flag
with two stars
in the white
surrounded by heart

Blue Skies, Dirty Lies

blue skies
deep lies, a life without peace
a life in disguise

dirty lies
deep eyes, a secret worth keeping
not need to hide. 

blue skies
my hurting eyes, feel the pain
we all cry

dirty lies
the ones inside, eating me alive
only a smile can hide

blue skies,
incredible times, coming forth
after I release those lies

dirty lies
the ones inside, no longer can
eat me alive.

Only Daughter

Trapped in side
my family's lies
why didn't they tell me about 
this disguise

I am not their kid
I never was 
they were my parents 
just because

they found me
on the street 
as a baby
with such little feet

my mother died 
giving birth
some say it was
like a curse

they are in touch
with my father
because I'm his
only daughter

I See, I Fall, I Remember

I see
I remember
the darkness
that enters.

enters the 
minds 
of those who
fight

for all of
us here
far
and near

don't just
think, see or
remember
those who have fallen
and those in war, the combat can't 
be ignored

they are 
important as 
those still
alive
they fight all day
and even through 
nights

they protect us 
as we support them
through everything
until
the end.

give your hearts
to the men and fallen
their souls
are still hear 
just hear them calling

"hey their 
families all about
don't sit, sit
and pout. 

we are doing what we 
love 
it's why god sent us from above. 

we fight for 
you, 
our country too,

today is to remember
yesterday we
forget,
tomorrow is a day
full of love
and quite a bit."

this poem is for 
every solider that far
but ever more
in our hearts.

The Hunt

The great game is who I am allowed to be
the game is my name and the only way, 
time flies by without the look of death in a single eye. 
What is this "Mad world" men put their selves into, 
when the great game is out of their way in the woods, standing far away?
 I do not wish to know, for only the snow, can mask the intend glow of foot prints left for me to know, 
which leads to death and the other home. 
I'm the game, the elk, mighty and young, being hunted by you,
 the great game attendee. 
The game just begun as you take that hat place on you head,
 grabbed your bag 
and load your gun.

I Be-Lieve

Some people believe
in different things
some are easy
others hard to see

I believe in world peace
a day where some one could only see
I believe in strong hearts
the ones of families not far apart
I believe in the prefect home
my place, my life, my quiet zone

see these are different
and so are yours
a little bit no,
so much more

I believe in lasting life
for only those who truly put up a fight
I believe in holy ground
even good souls uprising, from the ground
I believe in false dreams 
because in some of which I can't see
I believe I lasting love
because even a little is enough

in this world
are many
beliefs
I sometimes
wonder what
the others could be

but till
then I still know
my beliefs are strong and glow 

Cause 
l believe
in world
peace
a day where
someone 
could only
see,

I believe
 in strong hearts, 
the one
of families
not far apart

I believe 
in the 
perfect home
my place my life, 
my quiet
zone

I believe
in lasting life
for those who
truly put
up a fight.

I believe 
in holy grounds
where only good souls
walk amongst 
around.

I believe 
in false dreams
some of
which I can't see

I know this is
the end
but that 
depends if you
can make 
this again

the final thing
 I believe
 in, is bigger than
me in this
den

I believe 
in lasting love,
because even a little
is just enough.

Summer Is Coming

Summer is coming,
flowers are hear, 
you see the shadows
disappear

school
is almost out
the smiles on our faces
while the adults pout

summer is coming
the heat of a year
there is a lot bees
buzzing in our ears

but we don't care
we're here at last
when school is out
we can have a blast

welcome to summer
beat the heat
while your in the city 
we're at the beach!
