I'Ll Be Seeing You

I whisper "Take Care", as I hold you & say "Goodbye", You whisper "I'll be seeing you, please try not to cry". I never want to let you go, when you deploy, But hearing "I'll be seeing you", almost brings me joy. I know that while you're gone, it will be hard for both of us, I know that I'll be seeing you, so I'll try not to make a fuss. The pain of missing you, it never seems to go away, Even though I'll be seeing you, how I wish you could stay. You kiss me tenderly, then whisper "I Love You", I reply with "I'll be seeing you and I Love You too". The time has come for you to leave, I call out my last goodbye, You turn to me and say again, "I'll be seeing you, on that you can rely!
