I'll be coming home soon from this war. <br />My eyes have become so sore <br />From crying so much <br />Over missing your soft touch. <br />You won't have to wait much longer. <br />Day by day, my love for you grows stronger. <br />Leave the lights on in the window and the porch. <br />The flame of our love has become a torch. <br />I pray that I make it home safe and sound, <br />Insteading of them burying me in the ground. <br />But no matter what happens, I'll never stop thinking of you. <br />I feel so secure, because you love me, too. <br />I hope that peace comes without delay, <br />And that I will be home with you to stay.<br /><br />Jeff Fleischer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-ll-be-coming-home-soon-from-this-war/
