A Letter To My Darling

The story that I am writing, Could easily be true. It could have happened, To either me or to you; In a mail room somewhere, A letter lays unread. On the front of the envelope, This is what it said: "A Letter To My Darling" The envelope was old, and tattered with years. On the pages, they seem to still be, wet with tears; "In a fox hole my darling", that's how it all began, "We were running from the enemy, And it was more than I could stand. "In A Letter To My Darling." "I toss and turn, unable to rest. I love you so much, cause to me, You are the best; I don't want to die, in this unforsaken land. But, I have my faith in God, And here is where I"ll stand." "In A Letter To My Darling." As the last page was folded, They were choaking back the tears. And each one began to wonder, How it lasted through the years; Then on the envelope, some words began to appear. "Thank you", it read, For all the latters you sent me. Signed, "A Letter To My Dear."
