Lest We Forget

How they fall and fell again
Mighty in their weight
To overcome sheer numbers
Are no match

Lest we forget, lest we forgot
Purpose, greater than one
Steadfast, unheard prayers
Fall upon, the god of war

White marble, fades
Elder visions dim
What shall remain

Lest we forget, lest we forgot
Lest we forget, lest we forgot

Pallid figures
Lifeless grey in their eyes
Silent as they march
Burdened with the scars
Of countless campaigns

As their memory dims
So our vision fades
Forgotten....

...Lest We Forget.
