Closing my eyes and I can’t sleep
Every time I close my eyes
I miss you more with each passing day
Every single letter you write
I hang on each and every word
You’ve struck with your pen
It saves me from the memories of what I’ve done with my rifle and bayonet
It gave me strength as I lead today’s charge with a resounding roar
I held a dying buddy in my arms after
He begged me to read his bloody bible and tell his wife not to forget him
This isn’t fair at all
I just wish to be home
I just wait for a call
I long for your touch
I long for your lips pressed against mine
I’m laying in this cold foxhole
All alone and waiting for you to lay on my chest
Bombs bursting over my head instead
Machine guns and gas
Men tangled in agony in hardwire is all I get
I miss the way our eyes lock
I miss your breath upon my neck
I miss your warm embrace
I really need you
I feel empty and alone
I know your tethered to my soul by our red string
I know
It doesn’t change the fact your so far away
Craving your touch
I’m wasting away without your love
So I choose strength
I wish I could be home
Laughing and dancing with you
Till the sun burns our eyes
And our cups are dry
I miss being in our garden
I miss your soft smile greeting me after a long day in our fields
I miss walking in our door
To your welcoming arms and soft caressing hands upon my face
I can’t wait for the journey to be done
I can’t wait for the return from this long voyage to foreign lands
My minds collapsing
My soul is starving
My love is growing
My love I dream of you when I sleep
It helps me escape my duties
It’s a splendor and beauty
That keeps me driven
I awake to a reality I didn’t ask for but need to do
More than anything I just want you to know that I need you
Just you
Me and you
We will make our dreams come true
