Your Courage Irreplaceable

You die not in vain,

you stand firm for your soil,

we won't tear just feel pain

your courage irreplaceable

Your smile dear to many

their love will change none,

for you shall not return

but my friend your job was done.

Time might heal the scars

that it bestowed concrete.

But what of the emptiness

around us, the silence weeps.

We rise for blood was true,

no drop shall see despair.

We hold the cause for you,

our strengths beyond compare.

for your courage irreplaceable.

We shall not let you fade,

you stood for lives to see;

the dawn, the day and more

but your days had to seize.

I know dear son of soil

you wish time would seize;

more tears you would heal,

more bullets you would breathe.

You said don't fear for me

for until I see you safe

no grenade, no bullet's decree,

can ever make you break

My friend, you stood longer

you stood with at ease.

When your heart surrendered

your gun wouldn't seize.

you said I'll keep standing

when the time was to leave,

for your courage irreplaceable.
