I wish I was by your side
Fighting with all my might so
That children may sleep knowing
That I am defending their freedom
I will not go down without a fight
So that what I protect might have a right
To live free in this country for awhile
And to e able to to see within a mile
Not a shed of blood or tears
So it will not flood or see their fears
And kill all of humanity
And so children will have a piece of sanity

The author's comments:
I was thinking how hundreds of thousands are fighting for me, for us, so that we are protected and safe when they don't even know us at all and that they are ricking EVERYTHING FOR US what does that tell you? to me it tells me that I am free because of them and when I here a friend say they lost someone to the war I will say "I'm so sorry for your lost. I wish they could live to see what will become of us" and I hope that is all I NEED to say to them
