The Fallen Song of Heroes
May 29, 2017
The fallen song of heroes,
a calling to be heard,
a melody strong and proud,
that gave strength to us all,
that bellowed over the chaos,
that sung above the rage,
that kept heads held high,
even in the darkest days.
The fallen song of heroes,
one born from the strength of love,
they stood their ground,
and fought till the battle was won,
and even though the odds were stacked against them,
their faith never swayed,
their hearts never fell,
it was through
The Fallen Song of Heroes,
that we stand here today.
So we honor those who died for us,
on this Memorial Day

Memorial day is a day dedicated to the reflection of those who died for us. Who sacrificed their lives for a better world. They gave up the chance to live a normal life for the chance to make the world better for the rest of us. Today is the day when we give back to them. That we give our thanks to them. Yet they still do not get enough credit for all that they gave us. We need to make sure their sacrifice was not in vain. They died for a better world. And now we need to finish what was started.
