Love Poem: Solider

Solider

She sits on her porch
While the wind blows through her hair
Waiting for her love to come back
Just sits and stares
Weeks go by
Nothing but strangers walk by
She just sits and thinks to herself
What if he doesn't come back, what if he dies
What if he is lying somewhere hurt
Noone there to help him out
She finally walks in her house
Lies on her bed and pouts
A month goes by
Still no sign
There's a knock on the door, she opens it
There's someone in the shadows who look so kind
He walks in the light
A man in a military uniform, it's him
Her love has returned from the war
She runs up, hugging him
Never letting go, for they have reunited
