Goodnight my darling, you're my sweet, sweet love, <br />From my bunker under the stars above. <br />Just to hold you in my arms again, <br />To kiss you lips, I try to remember when. <br /> <br />I wish that I could leave this horrid place, <br />Hold you tight, and gaze into your face, <br />When I'm down and out and feeling blue, <br />I know you'll wait because our loves so true. <br /> <br />Tell the family, that I miss them so, <br />It seems I left you, oh so long ago. <br />You're in my heart and soul each and every day, <br />I've had a long and trying time today. <br /> <br />Goodnight, my love, from Iraq, so far away, <br />I pray to God that I make it through the day.<br /><br />Philip Lore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/goodnight-my-love-4/
