Loving an American Soldier

• Artist: II j u n i a r t II
• Description: This is a poem about my boyfriend who I love so much, I can't stand it. The words he says, the hugs he gives, and his smiles that seemed to pierce my heart. It broke my heart so much when I knew that he'll be gone. We have only two years to spend before he's shipped off. He's going to be a soldier of America. And when he gets there, I hope he can hear me cheering him on.

It had only been a little
the time we are together.
But I felt like I knew him
more than forever.
He has such a kind heart
and care in his eyes.
I know him too well
to be telling me lies.
He would try anything
to see me at all.
Though he's always busy
not even a call.
He's a jock I know
and surprised so many.
That a man like him
would love someone like me.
Looks didn't matter
he'll always say.
As long as the heart
could be taken away.
He'd say he's lucky
every time I'm with him.
But luck seems to fade
as though it was dim.
To me for sure
he's not the one in luck
Rather I'm the one
who's love is stuck.
He's like a magnet
to many girls.
But he chose me
a split-ended piece
from the many curls.
Only this moment
for love so hardcore
Before two years
he's sent off to war.

Thomas Turner,
I love you
and I always will.
No man can ever replace you.

He actually stayed one more year than intended so I'm very happy for that (this was written before we dated) and now, I'm engaged to him smile
And he'll be going off this year tho :'(
