The Package
I was missing today you with a tear in my eye
Thinking of our life it was making me cry
Needing you close so I thought only of you
Knowing how much I meant and you loved me too
I sat on the couch just feeling alone
Guess I am scared of the unknown
The miles separate us for only a short time
I’m capturing my feelings in this short rhyme
The doorbell rang it was a package for me
From a soldier I love sent from overseas
Addressed to my love whom I love and adore
Tired of fighting in an unwinable war
The package was a sign sent from God above
He hadn’t forgotten me and shown me his love
God knew of my feelings as busy as he
Took time to reach out just to help me
A few weeks earlier came a knock at my door
A man dressed real nice saying you died in the war
So lonely and missing my friend and my soul mate
The package was lost and came a month too late
You knew I needed you on this loneliest of days
So you found my package as I sat down to pray
Thank you for loving me and sacrificing your all
I’ll visit you often at your name on the wall
