I Am An Eagle

I see you die for your country,

You lay down your life to protect

the lives you've never met;

I watch you die.

I see sorrowful fields of lifeless bodies,

You lay perfectaly still in a pool of scarlet.

The rain comes pouring down

And I cry for you.

Your family anxiously waits

For the letter you never sent.

Instead they get a hand delivered note;

Then they cry for you.

Many tears flow like rivers

Down the cheeks of the lonely ones.

Many children cry of confusion,

I watch as they understand.

I see all that happens,

I watch families fall apart,

I witness the death of a soldier,

I soar above the world.

I am The Guardian.

I am an angel.

I am a free spirit.

I am an eagle.
