Loving A Soldier

I borrowed this off a fellow military wife's blog (thanks, Emily!)
I read this several times as I had a hard time seeing the words through my tears.

Loving a Soldier isn't

always what they say.

And loving him

is a high price to pay.

Its mostly loving

with nothing to hold.

Its being young

yet feeling so old.

Remember

he's thinking

of you everyday.

He's sad and lonely

from being away.

So love him, miss him,

And know he's saying,

"I just want to hold her..."

And always be proud

to love your Soldier!
