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
