I REMEMBER
I remember
Hate and Pain
These feelings make a war
And I remember
Hearing tales
Of how it went too far
I remember
Being told
That things were tough back then
And I remember
Reading notes
Of what the war should bring
I remember
Seeing tears
Nostalgia in the cold
And I remember
Feelings, not of love
For wars of old
I don't remember
Being in
The front line of attack
And I don't know
Just what it's like
To want to be in back
I don't remember
Sacrificing life
For times to come
I don't remember
Dying just to save the future ones.
