Purple Heart Tragedy
A Soldier and a Friend
I can't begin to imagine what
was going through your head.
Obviously it was to much
because now you are dead.
By your own hand and
a bullet from a gun.
What happened my friend
your life had just begun.
I cried and screamed
when I got the news.
Then I was angry, pissed
off and mad at you.
What were you thinking
when you pulled that trigger?
Didn't you realize God's plans
for you were so much bigger?
A soldier you were, friend
as well as a hero too.
A Purple Heart you received,
because you were you.
I will never know the
battles you were fighting.
Forever in my heart, and
in my memory you are smiling.
