To My Military Husband, I Would Give Up Tomorrow

I would give up tomorrow for you knowing your in my life knowing way before i said,"I Do" Every memory No matter how small, important in its own way Every tear shed worth everything it stood for For each time we thought"who may know where the road goes", We discovered and uncovered each and every one For every time i questioned, 'Will you love me when I'm old", The answer was always simple Every speech i ever helped you write For each birth as we stood in awe at the sight Every move to a new location To the first step into our newly bought home Every moment we spent together And apart To watching the sunset at dusk when the kids were small being the few romantic moments Getting through each day while our children faced their challenges For everytime i thought of the song,"All i want is you",only reminding me no matter how much time has past, its still true. In this moment with your bright beautiful eyes And Brilliant smile I would take this moment, any day Give up my unknown future to keep this, right here, right now Because I Love You I would give up tomorrow, for you.

Robert Thank you for your encouraging words.I have been a mil-spouse for 11 years so far.My husband is a lifer.No matter how hard or easy life seems at times i have always been proud of who is he and what he stands for.Thankfully i have not had to have him away as long as some.They are the strong ones to me.I have read your poem :They also Serve" and it is wonderful.I have another one called"The Nomads End" that refers to the military spouse.
