With Every breath

~My Darling~

~When I write upon these lines

you are the thought within my mind~

~With every breath in that I take

you give me reason for I wake~

~I live for you in all I do

I want for you in daytime through~

~And when we lay together night

I pray my God and hold you tight~

~Give thanks to him in blessing me

with you my Love my destiny~

~You are the light that guides my way

in that my life of every day~

~You are the blood that feeds my veins

you are of what that heals my pain~

~And when my mind becomes of rife

you take from me of all the strife~

~You are for me my evermore

in everlasting love adore~ 

~Within my heart there is but you

I love you Darling so much I do~

~No greater love in life can be

than that of you I have in me~

~For always know my love to be

‘til end of time eternity~

Open Letter To the Ladies

Interested?

I’ve made many riches in the past,

and I’ve had women by the mass!

Over the years I’ve come to understand,

that’s not what makes a real man!

My luck ran out and I’ve no more money,

without it my life’s been more sunny!

Woman now like me for who I am,

not to take me for all they can!

I’ve mellowed throughout the years,

there’s been much happiness and some tears!

But I know my life’s better than I’ve had,

I’m more happy than I’m sad!

I don’t know what’ll be my fate,

but be aware I’m looking for a mate!

Who ever you might be,

I’m a real catch you’ll see!

I’ll never disrespect my girl,

I’ll protect and love her and make her my world!

So if you’re interested drop me a line,

I’m on twitter/tumblr/blogger/Face Book and I'm easy to find!

My Darling;


   How I miss you so, as I sit in this Foreign Land so far away from you. When I think of all the Joy you have brought to my life. I thank God for you. I stay awake at night and Pray, that I will live through this horrible war and come home to you! My life would be nothing without you. You are the Sunshine in my Day and the Moonlight in my Night. My life would be total Darkness without you. There is Evil in this land and, it Surrounds us! We live in constant Fear. Bullets stream by our heads as the Firefights become more Frequent! The rain over here seems to never stop. The ground is so Saturated that, we sink deeper with every step we take! The Air Reeks of the Stench of Death and sickens you! The Heat is so Great, that you take a warm Shower in the Rain. If you stay in the Sun without a Helmet, your Brain will Fry! My Darling, I Fear I will not make it through this War Alive! If I don’t, Always Remember that my Love for you, was Greater than All the Stars in the Heavens and my Life was Better for it! You are my Every Reason for Living and, if I do make it Home, it will be because of you. Well my Love, we are on the move again so, I will write again soon. Remember I Love you with All of my Life and, Every Breath I take is for You!

                          My Heart is Yours for Ever with Love,

                                  A Soldier
