Each Cross

About fallen soldiers.

Each cross represents a fallen soldier,
Every one of them with a life story.
Maybe one was a grocery clerk,
One might have had a newborn baby at home.

Do you think of these heroes every day?
Are they a part of your mind?
They probably aren't,
Since a majority of people who are living now take life for granted.

Their buddies that are still alive remember them,
They think of them constantly.
Each cross represents a life-saver,
Because freedom isn't free.
