Sacrifices that are made in the name of Freedom |
They Gave To All... It was a day that lives in our hearts As tears are shed for many across the east coast The sound is deafening to our ears, as are the words We have been attacked within our world My son was in lockdown, as was his wife and baby girl We had no way of knowing they were ok The President was in lockdown with him as well those days of shutdown As we all sat glued to the televisions for news The tears pour down my cheeks still today I think about the loss we all endured that day And the days to come on foreign soil Our sons and daughters would be fighting against evil once more. My family has sacrificed many for freedom They answer the call of duty with their hearts To protect our country and many others Without a blink of an eye It is a way to celebrate our loved ones and the loss we bear We call it Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and even D-Day I sit here and recall the days spent with my loved ones that are gone But never forgotten Holding hands, laughing, and embracing one another I know that one day we will be reunited For the acts of courage, sacrifice, and love They gave to All...
