When you became a man
you knew what you had to do.
However it was a choice,
I had no say.
The day you left sure was a hard one.
I remember waking up before the sun
just to tell you I loved you one last time.
Trying not to let you hear my fear,
I told you to take care .
Your strength is great
while your love is near.
I'm counting down the days
until this war ends.
