Look into my sad green eyes, <br />Can you see my soul? <br />Can you see the heavy weight, <br />The horrors that they hold. <br /> <br />Some say we are 'killers', <br />Wreckless, cold, and mean, <br />Just take a walk along my trail, <br />And see what I have seen. <br /> <br />Many young lives taken, <br />Fathers...brothers....A son, <br />Giving their live freely, <br />Getting the mission done. <br /> <br />We fight our fight for freedom, <br />This is why we die, <br />Some wonder why we fight this war, <br />Our mission we can't deny. <br /> <br />We will always fight for freedom, <br />Never asking....Why? <br />Keeping our emotions hidden, <br />Trying not to cry. <br /> <br />Many times we die alone, <br />It's hard to say good bye, <br />When a buddys shot on the battlefield, <br />You watch your best friend die. <br /> <br />My eyes are windows to my soul, <br />Look and see my tears, <br />Look and see my troubles, <br />Search deep and see my fears. <br /> <br />We go away to far off lands, <br />Leaving our loved one behind, <br />These secrets are the things we keep, <br />Deep within our mind.<br /><br />Philip Lore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/look-into-my-eyes-you-can-see-my-soul/
