Unknown Soldiercountry as flag
There you stood so dignified,
with such class and pride.

It seemed you had a wall around you,
that no one could break through.

Your eyes told a story,
freedom is your passion not glory.

Without saying a word,
your message was heard.

By the expression on your face,
you were still in another place.

By the look in your eyes I could tell,
you have just been through hell.

Though you've weathered a storm,
You wore a perfect uniform.

What you suffered no one will ever know,
because you will never let it show.

Looking at this soldier all I see,
is a man defending the land of the free.

My respect for him is immense,
to the world he makes all the difference.
