MS: Hey guys! Here's a poem dedicated to soldiers that are fighting for us. Many people think that because soldiers don't shed tears for others at their funeral , it means they're heartless. Well, here's what I think of the situation.
Note: I don't own halo.
As he waited with everyone else
In front of the cold marked stones,
John knew the pain he felt
Was not to bear alone.
He felt the unbearing sorrow,
As he fought with these soldiers for years.
Yet as he stood in front of the stones,
It was shown he did not shed tears.
One person saw him, and was enraged.
She thought he didn't care for the departed.
She yelled at him in pure rage
About how he could be so cold hearted.
He only looked at her in the cold wind
As the leaves were flowing by.
His answer was the same for every veteran
Who had to watch a comrade die.
Listen, he said to the soldier
As he looked down upon the marine.
I do feel the pain of the past soldiers,
It hurts like a beam.
My answers the same
As every veteran
Who has to bear the same pain.
After seeing many soldiers die,
Including your loved ones,
You forget how to cry.
she stood there stunned
as the soldier departed.
and suddenly she felt
a bit heavilly hearted.
as she stood there
not hearing the birds,
in a sudden decision,
she repeated his words.
"After seeing many soldiers die,
including your loved ones,
you forget how to cry."

In dedication to the soldiers that lost their lives for their homes, and the soldiers that have to bear for the losses of their comrades.
