PRIDE

To my fallen comrades!

I have a form of pride many wouldn't know,
God help you if you step on me - friend or foe.

I walk about this earth and no one notices me,
You never want to be my enemy.

Because where I am there are many like me,
We move as a team for you to never see.

You fight us without realizing who we are,
Never knowing what we give up to go this far.

So before you make another selfless act,
Try to approach us with a little more tact.

We forfeit family and friends to support our flag,
Even though more times than not our hearts do drag.

We lose comrades almost every day,
But to ask us, we would not say.

Yes, we hurt and Yes, we bleed,
But we do not suffer from poverty and greed.

For we are SOLDIERS each and every one,
If your on our bad side, SON you better run!
