This is a poem I wrote for the strong military men and women, come home safe please.
I Will See You Again

One day my body will be set free,
Send myself off where I can finally breathe;
I will grow wings and fly to a new destination,
My new home will be in the sky without hesitation.

I will watch over you with care,
I will surround you like air;
I will help you stay strong for everyone,
Give me your burdens because I know they weigh a ton.

I know this seems hard,
Just know I am your permanent body guard;
The tears will soon come to a cease,
And you will know I am finally in peace.

You are my heavenly beloved, my life, forever,
I will keep you warm with love entwined, stitched like a sweater.
I have checked into your heart for a permanent stay,
Even though I am a world away.


Never forget the lessons I taught,
Never forget the battles I fought;
Live your life with unique traits,
I will soon meet you at Heaven’s Gates.
