Lost Father and the Long Lost Twin Veteran Brother
day and night i sit and wonder when is my dad coming home
he writes to me about the war and the things that has happened
"dear son
soon I'll be home and i promise you won't recognize me
today i killed at 5 japs and took under my wing a boy not much older than you and
this makes me wish i was home with you."
one day I'll see my dad and hope that he looks the same
day after day after day yet no sign that my dad is okay
then one day an army truck appears inside is a man and a young boy right about
my age.
they knock on my door and i open it
they told that my dad was dead and the boy in front of me was my twin and he
was the boy that my father took under his wing .
i gave him a hug and cried for the lost of my father they told that is 15 japs and a
missile that wiped my father out.
day and night with a new brother by my side i wait to be with my lost father again
