A memory of a face we can embrace 
Suspended in life's collision. 

In memory of a face reminds us of our youth 
Young warriors in battle not knowing from day to day  
Moving like ghosts through blades of grass then laying still in some quiet place 

A memory of a face that can never be erased 
And when silence broke we held you close to steal your pain but you left without a trace 
So vague the distant memories friend but still  
you visit us each year giving us some answers to a memory of a face.
