A VETERANS NEEDS
A veterans needs
A veterans needs to know,
that what he did does show.
With the help a veteran needs,
with others deeds.
How they help,
with each step.
How they don't look down,
when a veteran comes around.
Are act as if they can't see the tears,
that have fallen throughout the years.
Some for him,
others for them.
Those that couldn't come home,
and those who felt all alone.
Having all those nightmares,
Never wanting to share.
That lived over and over again,
never knowing how to gain.
The world's respect,
or what else to expect.
Not seeing any hope,
Just hanging on to a burning rope.
Always left wondering,
in their minds hearing the thundering.
Of long ago cannors speaking,
of the enemy still sneaking.
Into their sleep at night,
Not knowing if their mind will ever be right.
