Letter From a Soldier

My Dear Love, I don't mean to be crude But I feel it my duty To tell my story to you If you could be so bold To not shed a tear I will be in your heart always Fighting with your fears As you may have realized The purpose for this note Please, I am begging you You must learn to cope I went down strong Always brave With you on my mind How else could I behave? I was shot down Such a cowardly act The enemy sneaked Coming up from behind A bullet to the head That is what the medic said Shocked I wasn't gone straight away But no chance to live another day So, My Sweet, Writing this letter My heart takes its last beat I must tell you Goodbye I love you Live your life well For you never know
