Heartfelt Poem To a Soldier
Dear Hero
You woke each morning to an ordinary life
Knowing too soon you would be fighting for your life
What bravery to cause you to sacrifice
What courage it takes to defend the life that is mine
What courage it takes to face the enemy alone
When did you decide to be a hero to all us,to you unknown
How do you watch losing your friends one by one
It hurts me,the thought, you being someones daughter or son
How do you stay sane when you return
How do you cope after all you have learned
You woke there each morning to hear a blast
You now wake each morning to a scream from the past
Thank you will not ever be enough
Takes a special few to ever be that tough
