War Torn




The other side of the bed is cold
Because the love of her life is absent
The parents pass photos around of their child
For when the family reunion comes around the now adult is nonexistent
The young boy is missing his father
The male figure in his life is many time zones away
They are off serving the country they love
Giving it all up for what they believe in
Sacrificing for the flag
Sweat, tears and even blood
Though we may not all be in favor of warfare
We still thank you….the solider
Make us proud
On behalf of all Americans
I want to salute you
