M.i.a
If I were to tell you how much I missed you,
It wouldnt make a difference.
The government has taken you from me.
God, if only they knew its painful.
It kills the ones left behind.
The stress youre in.
The ways you have to give up civilian life,
just to be a good damn soldier.
Well you march on my love.
And show them the way.
Be the soldier you see in your heart,
and the soldier I see with my faith.
Prove those who dont believe in you, wrong.
Its New Year, and 18 days until my birthday.
Ill wait here for you by my candlelite dinner.
Though you will never show,
we will still see the stars together tonight.

Think of a Soldier
I wait for him, yes its true.
The melting of a heart with an 'I LoveYou.'
My soldier isnt here right now,
which deepens the pain I have in me.
I wish he were home with me.
I wish he knew how I think of him.
And how badly it hurts to now touch his hand.
All thats known anymore is his picture and his memories.
he left them all behind.
His calls are sparing, and his emails arent too long,
but I still wait for him to come back.
I think of this man as the one who saved me.
He has shown me many times what is right.
He fights for the parts of life others never recognize.
If he only tried to show his feelings,
and not try to be so cold.
This soldier loves me I know.
I think of a soldier.
This soldier needs to be home.
