A Military Wife's Goodbye
Date: 10/12/17
pick your topic: Heart break and loss
Soldier boy
Where's my kiss?
Are you going to say goodbye with your words
when I'd rather it be with your lips?
You say you'll be back
But how will I Know?
Will you be the same man I fell in love with
When you come home?
Will you be ornated in medals?
Or will you be draped with a flag and encased in oak?
I know there are harder days to come
But this goodbye is more than I can take
I’ll think about you when I close my eyes to sleep
And you'll still be on my mind when I wake
Soldier boy, stupid soldier boy
Didn't you get the hints?
You called me your queen and made me your wife
Of course I carry your prince
You have to make it through
You have to survive, find the will to live
Soldier boy, my soldier boy
What i'd give to get you home
What i'd give!
What i'd give!
