Only A Hero To Some Poem by Lagaya Evans

On the very front lines
Of this all out war
Strangers have committed
Their lives and for what

For the cause of freedom
You and I do own
A soldiers life today
Tomorrow may be gone

A mother at home
So broken and humble
Her baby she prays
Will not falter or stumble

Back on the killing field
Americans blood is shed
To keep others safe
As our own lay dead

War sometimes the only answer
God used it in bible days
Let's just pray our leaders
Know when to walk away

Hold up our soldiers
Could be your daughter or son
Just a number to many
Only a hero to some
