I was watching Horatio Hornblower and I just had to write something for Archie... He was my favorite. I still haven't forgiven A&E... :(
When we think of you, we always ask why.
With a glimpse of the man you could become,
Our hearts were torn as we watched you die.
And we still ask why death took one so young.
The hand of death could not dim your sky-coloured eyes,
As you used your last words to comfort your friend.
Your last action was one that severed all ties,
But we all know, it was to a loyal end.
From your name, was honour harshly taken,
And sentenced to hang, but you did not go.
By us, you will never be forsaken.
You died as you lived: As a hero.
Lt. Archie Kennedy, may you rest in peace...
