Wall Of Tears

Many names are listed here

heroes all on the wall of tears

loved ones who fought on foreign soil

in bitter battles they were embroiled

          they fought for freedom and a way of life

to uphold the standards they thought were right

         they gave their life so others could be free

these names here on the wall of tears you see

visitors come from all over the world

       older people, young people, boy's and girls

      they come to pay respect to those who live here

          forever incased on the wall of tears

To stand as pillars for all time

    these son's and daughters and friends of mankind

          war does leave it's mark that's for sure

as all the world can see

and one of the testaments to the Vietnam saga

          now stands here in Washington DC

               Eternity is forever this we know

it's time has no end

            and this wall of tears was built for that

to honor and remember son's daughters and friends

          So when you come to this hallowed place

bear in mind just what you see

A monument to those that gave their all

          so less fortunate could be free

           Let not us forget the loss of other wars

that rest now in the past

and hope someday soon these wall's of tears

will stop being built at last.

          Until that wonderful time comes they will chisel on

              all our hero's names into walls of stone .
