Why do I feel guilty?
Why did I survive?
Why did so many friends die?
Why am I still alive?
I have seen terrible things
That I was not meant to see
All the memories of carnage
Will always forever haunt me
War is a terrible thing
Taking soldiers in their prime
War is an abomination to man
For each families loss is a crime
I cry for all lost in conflict
I cry with an aching heart
For families who have lost loved ones
Who are now forever far apart?
The answer came to me
As I was deep in my sorrow
A voice whispered in my ear
In you, there will be a new tomorrow
For through your experiences and pain
You are the ambassador for those who died
You can help to build a future
Remembering all the fallen with pride
Only God has the answer
One day I shall know why
Why the soldiers in this world
Through battle had to die
