Always in my prayers


I feel you in the moon,

in the wind,

and all aspects of serenity.

For your voice is heard in every laughter, 

joke, and smile.

I see you  in everything,

in every face,

and in everything that is of love and military.

Every beautiful pleasant smell of peace and old spice

it always brings me back to you.

To when I first fell so madly in love with you.

You stopped my life from ending and gave me freedom.

You held me tight in your arms. 

Told me how amazing and beautiful I was ever single day.

You fought for me when no one else would.

You got me name Commander and stop my team form hurting me.

We talked all night and day.

I felt like I was radiating pure joy.

You made all the pain go away.

We taught each other so many things.

But far to soon you was going to go away.

You graduated high school the day I got hit.

You never know that.

I couldn't walk.

And all I wanted was you by my side.

I wanted to see you before you left for boot camp.

I replayed the lasted words you say to me.

"I'll see you soon."

No word from you and I know it was the day you was living.

I cried all the time.

You never gave me the base name.

I couldn't even write you.

So I waited for you ever single day.

Months passed.

School started up again.

I could walk but it was hard.

It made it where I couldn't stay on cadence.

They wouldn't let me be on armed drill anymore.

But I remember that you wouldn't want me to give up 

so I keep pushing to make it.

I get a message from our friends that you graduated boot camp.

I cried because I'm So unbelievably happy for you,

and because I probably get to see you soon.

But months again past.

And I find myself praying every second for you.

Eventually I heard from you and you break my heart.

You tell me you never loved me

and that it all ment nothing.

That you was just trying to be a kind find.

So I apologize for loving you 

and wasting your time.

Than you say the worst thing you could.

That we should never talk to each other again.

And I in beyond pain pain saids ok 

because of the guilt of being a burden on you.

So I lose you forever.

And I cried every day,

and pray to the Lord for you to always be happy and safe.

I wish upon you may blessings from the Lord.

Because what can I say you will always be my hero.

And it is because I love.
