Loving a soldier is like believing in ghosts <br />you know he’s out there somewhere <br />but you can’t feel him and you can’t see him. <br /> <br />The worst part is knowing <br />he wont be getting a hero's welcome home <br />like you've always planned in your head. <br /> <br />It's like running a race with no finish line <br />or fighting a war with no battlefield <br />or trying to count the stars in the sky. <br /> <br />Loving a soldier is like believing in ghosts, <br />you know he's out there somewhere, <br />but you can't feel him and you aren't allowed to see him. <br /> <br />12-27-07 <br />by shannon flanders <br />djlw<br /><br />shannon wright<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/loving-a-soldier-is-like-believing-in-ghosts/
