I Shall Stand Once More...
My Brother |
|
|
In remembrance of you,
I shall stand the watch
that gentles our dreams
in the night
of our violent history.
I shall let
the oldman tears
flow freely upon my face.
once more my friend...
once more and perhaps
never again!
I salute you!
... salute the flag
of a blessed nation.
I grow old,
and you
will not.
... We were warriors
that time
forgot.
Yet
... I
did not. |
