Remember

Remember

Freedom comes,

But at what cost?

The ones who died,

Forever lost.

But do not weep,

For it was not in vain.

So remember,

Those who were slain.

To kill is death,

But inside.

Only a few,

Can take a life.

Killin a price,

Paid and filled.

So remember,

Those who killed.

Death comes not once,

But twice.

Once in body,

Once in time.

When memory fades,

And loses your face.

Remember those,

Without a name.

Those who died, 

Those who killed.

Those forgotten,

Live on still.

Young ones come,

Martyrs go.

Remember those,

With names unknown.

Stars

Stars

Everyone has their story,

Everyone has their scars.

Everyone deserves their glory,

And to live among the stars.

And while some scars are deeper,

And some stories sadder.

Whether you’re up front or in the bleachers,

Doesn’t really matter.

So long as you have,

That one you can hold.

Just rejoice and be glad,

For that love is gold.

Cradle to Grave

Cradle to Grave

From cradle to grave,

Life robs us all.

We hit the ground running,

Then begin to fall.

We stumble and falter,

Then hit the gravel.

Then the judge of life,

Bangs the gavel.
