Stay strong for when i am gone

by PFC Louderback   Oct 11, 2005


My dearest love,

I, as you know will be leaving soon.
As you said before for something unbearable, I will be leaving for war.

Keep your chin held high and your spirit stout, stand tall and stay firm through times of doubt.

Do not watch the news,
for my name on a list, but stand proud of your soldier and send me a kiss.

If my time has come and Saint Peter is near,
I shall shed not one tear,
and show no fear.
