Dearest Valentine

A letter written in poetry form from the perspective of a military fiance'

Dearest Valentine, oh so far away
I long to be with you, my hero
I think of you and miss you every single day
I think Cupid shot at me with his arrow

Now I am here all alone
and you are overseas
I talk to you on the phone
and it brings me to my knees

I pray for your safe return to me
and I miss your every kiss
I know we're meant to be
Cupid did not miss

I cannot be where you are stationed at
Our marriage seems so far away
You need to hurry to get some leave stat
so we can be together every single day
