My Love In Rhyme - Sing To Me Contest

Pencil in hand I gaze at the paper Thinking of what I would say What words will still a sad heart Now you're so far away Thinking of the good times When life was full of fun All I have are the memories Of us basking in the sun The many shows we went to The films that made me cry The romantic evenings Until you said, "Goodbye" Off to distant shores for you With a gun not a pen in your hand I imagine you close and whisper Words of love, we both understand Waiting for you to come home darling Hoping to forget such times Now all I can do is put pen to paper Portraying my love in rhyme Penned 14/2/2012 after listening to Judy Holliday - What'll I Do.

First stanza change your to You're. This poem should do well in the contest, I like the mood you have created, I feel the angst and longing. Did he go off to war?
