Military Wife
Today I will just be looking out my window while it rains, because just hearing the sound of the thunder gives me a feeling comfort and as the lightning strikes it’s as if its telling me that it is feeling my pain in the same way –
And as these tears keep feeling in my eyes I remember that I’m still going to be alone once again tonight Which is the hardest part of being a military wife but as long as I have you I promise to be as strong as I can be for us—
Deep inside I hide all my sadness and worries when I am around our friends not wanting them to know these thoughts of you never end, because they just wouldn’t understand why I am weak and on my knees just trying to keep believing in your safety, As I pray each day for you to just come home and sometimes late at night I wonder if you feel as alone as I do, oh- and do you wish to be with me the way I wish I was with you,
Do you think of me the way I think of you, do you toss and turn threw out the whole night wishing that you were holding me tight, oh- and do you dream of me when your all alone at night, I know you understand how I feel, And that my love for you isn’t fake and that its real, And when I am thinking of you I imagine I can feel your every move, Your every breath with each and every step I take, I just believe that no matter what your safe, and As long as you need me the way I need you I will be strong for you for the rest of my life as your military wife.
Tonight I will just be looking out my window while it rains, because just hearing the sound of the thunder gives me a feeling comfort and as the lightning strikes it’s as if its telling me that it is feeling my pain in the same way –
And as these tears keep feeling in my eyes I remember that I’m still going to be alone once again tonight Which is the hardest part of being a military wife but as long as I have you I promise to be as strong as I can be for us—
