My Military Man

Loving a man in the military
it's such an honor to hold
at times its quite scary
the fear for the brave and the bold
It's heat breaking being so far away
its tragic not waking up to you everyday
missing the warmth of your smile
how it once brightened this dark room
The lonely feelings of exile
once in awhile we all consume
even though it can be rough
i'll smile through my tears
for my man is tough
with him i have no fears
this man is my hero
stationed so far away
risking his life
so we can wake in peace everyday
so i sincerely thank you 
for everything you do
and where ever your at tonight
just know that i love you

We owe a lot to those current serving overseas. Despite a few spelling errors here, this was a delightful read.
