Forever in Our Heart

Eyes wide open, memories flood in

Silent whispers where do I begin?

A soldier's heart, now at peace

But here in my mind, chaos won’t cease

It's been a week, feels like yesterday

Your face still haunts every shadow I play

Holding onto moments, trying not to fall

Lost in the silence, hearing your call

Did they do enough? Could we have changed fate?

Carrying the weight, hearts heavy with the ache

Your bravery inspired, the stories untold

Now I stand silent, feeling cold

You kept holding on, fighting through the storm

Memories of your courage keep us warm

Looking for answers in an endless night

Brother, you’re gone, but you’re still my light

Waiting for your voice, just one more sign

Thinking maybe somehow, this was divine

Could we've prevented, could we have prayed?

In the shadows of a life displayed

Proud soldier, you gave it all

Now in our hearts, you stand tall

Gone too soon, but never apart

Forever living in our heart
