Accept my deepest gratitude.
You put on your uniform 
and battle everyday,
you get scared and wounded 
but you never run away.

You're a hero,
remember the day at ground zero?
You recovered the lives 
of the almost dead,
so their families 
wouldn't be sad.

You fight the war in the country that 
I'll refer to as unnamed.
You put your life on the line every day,
out deepest gratitude in the 
USA will never be changed.

You're a hero in the 
eyes of the United States,
and the world around,

Your title stands for more 
than what you do,
it stands for what you are.
Though you may be far,
you are part of me,
inside my heart.

No matter the strikes 
that are blown,
In my eyes, 
you'll always be a hero.
