one of us

in recent days i have come to realize,
that the death of one soldier will be felt as if it were the death of a thousand and a thousand... as though they were ten thousand...for we have lost so many already...some might think that with all we have experienced thus far, another death is bad yes, but not worth grieving over the way we all grieved that day...
i say it is...i say remember that they are fighting for us, for our freedom...and grieve, if only for a moment, whenever you see the death tome...grieve in your heart and remember, one of us has passed...
