Lady Liberty And Ole Glory (Song) Poem by Britney Hogue

Baby, do you remember
How we walked so carefree
As if nothing would disagree
Remember how I pick wild flowers
And twist them in your long hair
I miss those days so much now
As I sit with missiles flying overhead
Wish I was back home with you
And not in this unforsaken land

But this is where I need to be
To protect the land you walk upon
For you my love and so many more
I hope this blood stained letter
Never finds you back home
But if it does know that I love you so
And its my own little sacrifice
All for lady liberty and ole glory

I guess you now know
That those days are only memories
As the uniformed guard comes
Knocks on our door, speaking the shame
Hands you this blood stained letter
I know its just not fair to you
But it’s my sacrifice for you my love
Not something I would give away
But what I take for liberty and glory

But this is where I need to be
To protect the land you walk upon
For you my love and so many more
I hope this blood stained letter
Never finds you back home
But if it does know that I love you so
And its my own little sacrifice
All for lady liberty and ole glory

I know you must feel so alone
But im still alive in our children’s eyes
Tell them that daddy still loves them
And when there old enough to understand
Tell them of my own little sacrifice
So they could live in the freedom
Of Lady Liberty and Ole glory.

But this is where I need to be
To protect the land you walk upon
For you my love and so many more
I hope this blood stained letter
Never finds you back home
But if it does know that I love you so
And its my own little sacrifice
All for lady liberty and ole glory
