In Harms Way

In Harms Way

A Poem by Dante Balintyne

In this world he seeks to fight

He seeks to fight for what he knows is right

In the process it causes us nothing but fear

We all just want him to be here

Home with us safe and sound

Instead of on the front lines of enemy ground

As time goes by we hope and prey

That we won’t get that sad cold letter one day

We all know he is not coming home soon

I sit and think about it as I stare up at the moon

I wonder if I will ever see him again

And if so I wish I knew when

Just know one thing brother, we all cry for you

We wait for the day when we will once again see you get through

All we need is time

As we all know that caring about you is not a crime

I liked how this rhymed, it was thought out, but it still worked and flowed easily.
Cool =]
