Poetry

The day i promised you is only ten hours away, Daddy's going to take his final step to be sent away, Daddy finished signing his life, To defend his country with all his might, And as he has to leave mommy, my wifeDaddy's going to show the world you were worth the fight, I gave my life to the only one who mattered, The one who took my heart only to shatter, Daddy let the world chew him alive, But daddy's back and never better, Using you to work harder and thrive, Although there are times my eyes get wetter, With the thought of you not here only to makes me sadder, I dry my tears knowing your watching daddy with pride, As you watch daddy on the stair way up the ladder, Till the day mommy and daddy lay by your side.The day i promised you is only ten hours away, And yet you never left my mind not a second or a day.
