FORGOTTEN

The Majestic,

Alike in dress and stance.

To serve and protect.

To shield and die.

We honor,

For bravery; valor.

For service; death.

Honor the fallen,

and mourn the dead.

Welcome back the saviors;

The Majestic now the Defeated.

The dead walking,

with honor deferred.

Like a weakened shield,

broken and mishandled.

Protection, awarded not.

A majestic sword sharpened and honed.

Swung and thrust.

Slashed and cut.

Now, worn and rusted.

Tossed away and forgotten.
