Question: More poetry critique please!?
Once again, I can take constructive criticism, but don't be rude!. I wrote this in honor of my husband and all veterans of the US military!.

The anguish of the veteran,
so deep inside their souls,
has changed their lives and futures to be,
they had so many goals!.

But for our land and people they fought,
They did not ask us why,
they did their best to fight for us,
and watched their buddies die!.

The veterans will hide these thoughts,
and flashes of horrors they've seen,
until the time they rest their heads,
and it takes them back to that scene!.

They deserve respect for what they have done,
so many tears have been shed,
but the crying isn't for them you see,
it's the vets crying for their dead!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
