Breathe Another Breath For Me,
Fight Another War,
Save Another Life Today,
To Prove What Were Fighting For.

Let The Poppies Leave There Mark,
Inside Of Every Heart,
Remind Us What We've Lost,
As All The Soldiers Part.

Watch The Family's Suffer,
As A Man Comes To Their Door,
Knowing That They've Lost Their Love,
To Prove What Were Fighting For.

Another Body To Be Buried,
Along The Rest In Flanders Field,
One More Life To Grieve,
Another Heart Unhealed.

One More Child Left Waiting,
Too Feel The Tears Pour,
To Know Her Daddy's Not Coming Home,
To Prove What Were Fighting For.

Standing Among A Battle Field,
Waiting To Win The Fight,
Only To Realize,
You'll Be Dead Within The Night.

So Place A Poppy Upon Your Heart,
In Honor Of Those Who Died At War,
And Remember For Your Freedom,
Is What There Fighting For.

    That was really sad. I love poems about war though because it really describes everything everyone's feeling at this time. Great job, again.

    Awee, that was really good! I really liked that one. I often attempt to write war poems but can never finish them. It's a hard subject && I have to say you did an amazing job on it.
