Strong While Waiting


One by one, you count,

You count, how much you miss

You miss, the person that

makes you strong and not scared

 

Your strong now from so much

Loss some, but gain some

Never looking back for to long

Waiting for the day now

 

The day for your love

to come home to you.... Soon

Family all around you now

seeing if you're fine or broken

 

One by one, you count days

Days until you hear something

Knowing you must be strong for

your army boy and brave.
