My Soldier

by Miakoda   Apr 11, 2008


As the sun sets,
And the moon rises,
I'm reminded of all my regrets.
I am missing you,
More than the sun,
More than the moon.
I keep on hoping to see you soon.
All I remember is not saying goodbye,
But trust me, I did try.
Off you went to the fires of war.
Freedom and country is what you�re fighting for.
Risking your life for those you don�t know.
When you come back you�ll have a hero�s glow.
Seven months is the longest of times.
But every minute I think if you,
As I write my rhymes,
As I sit alone,
While I wait for you to come back home.

    "As the sun sets,
    And the moon rises,
    I'm reminded of all my regrets."
    Those 3 lines in the beginning are very powerful. Some may not know it but it sets a tone through out the poem. You see I really feel hit hard by those lines. But back to the poem. It was very good and very fluid.
