Lucky The Non Heroes

We make heroes of men who have been dead for years
Whose deaths at a young age left their parents in tears
They died under enemy gunfire for their Country's flag
A noble death is always seen worthy of a brag
Their heroic deaths others to die like them inspire 
So many do need war heroes to admire
We are told they should be remembered as they died brave and young
And they do not deserve to be of the unsung
In death their own history by them has been made
By patriots from the memory not allowed for to fade
So many dead heroes every war does create
Many do not survive to enjoy hero worship among those who tempt fate
The war that made them heroes they did not survive
But lucky the non heroes they are alive.
