Soldiers Emotions

Battles start over land and pride
soldiers march and soldiers ride
in their planes, tanks and cars
every man looks up to the stars
kids at home, wives on their mind
what these soldiers left behind
in the battlefield they look tired and cold
all the bravery these soldiers hold
they fight for their country to defend their own
leaving everything back at home
they suffer bullets, wounds and scars
all they think about is the bright yellow stars
praying to survive and keep their dreams alive
this is what will make them strive
for victory and beyond
they want peace for who they are fond
protection and honor is what they live for
bombs and grenades all over the floor
they roll, they climb with the enemy behind
hoping victory is what they will find
the soldiers return to wives at their door
tears fall down to the floor
no better picture will ever be seen
what that moment will forever mean
