Failure

~ A Soldier's Walk ~ 12 Comments

A life full of promise

A life wasted away

Full of endless failures

Broken promises strewn along the way

Days and months and years away from home

Missing holidays, birthdays and so many special days

A heart breaks because I have gone a separate way

Chasing a chance that slowly slips away

Not thinking of the destruction I have left in my wake

Failure chases me day after day

Why do I keep going down these lonely trails

Reaching for something, to no avail

Thinking of the future

While throwing away the present

Leaving tears, and a broken heart of the one I love

When will I learn to be content

Instead of living a life barren of

 

Love Affair

What do you do when you are miles apart

Without you what shall I do

When I feel that pain within my heart

Wishing I was next to you

Upon a star I wish at night

Upon a prayer I wish I was there

Hearing your voice my heart takes flight

This story of our love affair

Built over time

Washing off so much grime

Trials and tribulations we have endured

A relationship that has matured

Upon these journeys we have created

The love we have both awaited

You Are

~ A Soldier's Walk ~ 2 Comments

You are my past

Without you I wouldn’t last

You are my yesterday

Caught within your arms is a place I would love to stay

You are my today

My love for you will never go away

You are my tomorrow

Time apart brings upon sorrow

You are my future

Our dreams of then will be beyond super

You are my forever

Two hearts made into one is our endeavor

Sorry……

Pain Pain Pain

Is all I ever give you

Sadness Sadness Sadness

Is all I ever put into your life

All I have ever done is bring tears to your eyes

Depression, Despair and Defeat

What I have only provided from my actions

Taking a stake to your heart

Is what I have done since the start

Why do you put up with me still

Bringing you sadness and tears

Fulfilling all your fears

All I can say is taking steps forward are scary

When there is so much to be weary

But to you I make this vow

No matter where I go or where I am

I take you with me wherever I go

Always today, tomorrow and forever

 

What a Difference a Year Makes

~ A Soldier's Walk ~ 9 Comments

What a difference a year makes

Just twelve short months ago we were as far apart as the earth and the moon

Both hidden inside ourselves

Ready for it all to end

A love we thought built to last

A union of two coming to past

Miracles we soon learned do exist

At a bottom, our relationship did almost land

But two hearts were taken in hand

A hand of God placed upon us

Light of the world shown into our lives

Rising out of that dark place we had settled

Day by day we learned to love one another

A truer more deeper love than we had known before

Doubts were always on the horizon, challenges still lay in our path

Fighting for what we had begun so many years ago had just begun

Good days and bad, we made it through

Now ahead lays the biggest challenge we will face

Just know that my heart burns only for you

You are my love, my life, my one true bright shining star

Just twelve short months ago, I know it would have ended in ruins

But know now my heart and soul rests with you and yours with me

Wherever I go, here my heart will be

A future of brightness we have ahead

Adventures and journeys together we shall share

Know my love for you knows no bounds

No height, no depth will keep me from being around

For what a difference a year makes between us

Together

Upon you I find my courage

To reach for a future with you

When I look into your eyes

I find a time ahead so bright

Journey’s ahead to see all we have talked about

To reach that moment trials will we face

Together we will make it through

From sea to shining sea, across the oceans we will go

Until such a day when eternity we shall reach

Hand in hand we shall go to that end

Till we walk the roads made of gold

Distance

The thought of us being apart

Wears upon my fragile heart

But I know no matter how hard it may be

It will always be you and me

Our hearts will always be mended as one

Until our days on earth are done

The flame within our hearts will burn bright

Whatever the distance between us two

My heart will only beat for you

When loneliness becomes overbearing

Look upon the skies and stars we are sharing

Call my name upon the wind

With our souls intertwined

Answering back with a whisper between our souls

Sending my love back to you

Hand in Hand

The future is an uncertain mystery

We want to be able to control every aspect

Thinking we know all that comes next

But one day we are here and the next we are not

So as our future together is full of fright

Wishing we will always walk in the light

I know that there will be days full of rain

As long as I’m with you I will not be strained

For my future is with you that is all I know

Wherever that journey takes us we will go

With God as our guide

And you by my side

Hand in hand we will go forth

Whether it by East, West, North or South

As Two Become One

A pull

A tug

Moving your body next to mine

A touch

A caress

Feeling you next to mine

Closer and closer we two become one

To arise in the morning with you at my side

Entwined we embrace our love to one another

A kiss

A twinkle

You were made for me as I was for you

A look between two souls combined together

As two become one
