shades of color -------------------------------------------
You put so much emphasis
In the color of your skin
I am not white, i am not black
I am just right in between
I have sworn to protect
The big and the small
I would die for my country
The greates of all
So please dont judge me
I am a soldier in deed
There is only one color
Red blood when i bleed
Enjoy all the freedoms
Others will not see
Because they are dying for you
Next to die could be me
So know these are heroes
And that was their choice
To live and to die
And i will raise up their voice
Dear ibelikeso You hit the nail on head I pray for peace all over the world our soldiers don't get the recognition they deserve great reading material keep writing good expression
there is nothing in this world that could bring these heroes back but only memories. fighting for what's right is all that matters. I knew what you were trying to say from the start and i feel u. people take granted of people of uniform and what they do everyday. regardless of what country, religion or race...when they wear that uniform, they honour an Oath. To misuse and misguide wearing that uniform is a sin and shameful to the Oath taken. Some followed orders and some did what was right. I salute to these fallen heroes and the ones who are alive. Just by wearing a uniform, you are already a hero in my eyes. My prayers to all.

this is really touching and sometimes it is hard to get your point across...and some people don't know that the simple freedoms that they have are being fought for somewhere else with someone else's life at stake,and they just see it as give and take...but when it hits home its a blow fortold...because you did try to warn them about being so bold
oh, that is so true, everday there are people out there protecting us and sometimes we don't even know it, this was a good write, i think you expressed yourself well, and the message was good, nice job. - latykim
touching stuff, i really think that this peice should be read slowly, the structure tells you that, its a very proud and very morbid truth to it, beautiful heartfelt words i think. colour difference is a tender subject and its left alone too much i think.
