My Poems

The Soldier

*Wrote this for a guy I had a thing with. Didn't end well. Next update will be the second part of the poem.*

It's 2 am
And I sit In the dark
Another night if missing him
And holding his letters close to my heart

As an army man he must roam
Living to obey his commands
I'll sit here and wait for him to come home
Each day he marches the land

Each memory I'll hold dear
Each kiss I'll relive again
Until you are near
I'll write to you in pen

I've given you my heart
In a sealed envelope
Shipped the miles apart
Handle with care for fear it might be broke

So put it in your bag
And know it's always there
While your fighting for our flag
There's a girl back home who'll always care
