A Soldier's Love

Hello my dear, my other half
I miss you very much
Someday soon I will be home
And once again feel your touch

Your warm embrace gets me through
The tough days in the field
But when the plane lands to bring me home
For nothing I will yield

The enemy is strong and determined to win
But I cannot let that be
For if we are defeated and put on retreat
What would you think of me?

Although we are hated for our every belief
That does not define my role
In the nation’s defense and constant struggle
Coming home to you well, is my primary goal

I will press on with my brothers in arms
And fight for you everyday
But rest assured my darling, my love
You are mine, no matter the miles away
