SHOULD TOMORROW START WITHOUT ME

SHOULD TOMORROW START WITHOUT ME

Should tomorrow start without me
Remember I love you.
Looking down from up above
Seeing everything you do.

If I become a casualty
I pray you will love again
Whom ever makes you happy
I'll consider my friend.

Should tomorrow start without me
Remind our boys, God loves all who care.
And when life seems too harsh and cruel
With Him they must share their prayer.

I have proven I'm not a coward
Who breaks and runs to survive.
Always fearing death will kiss me
As the streets of Baghdad I drive.

Should tomorrow start without me
Be proud I choose to serve.
Our faith and our patriotism
Earn the freedom we deserve.

I miss home more than ever
It breaks my heart to stay away
I can't help but want to hold you
And whisper what I say.

My God bless America
And all, I love,
YOUR MARINE

    Thank you I have a poem just for you.

    TEARS

    Tears are the raindrops of the soul
    And there's one for all who die.
    They are the silent words of grief
    As they fall free from the eye.

    The shortest verse in the Bible
    Is the one where Jesus wept;
    So, if you hold back tears, "shed them"
    When your pains too harsh to accept.

    Tears are lovelier than a smile
    When they come from those you love.
    As they seek relief from sadness,
    When you're summoned from above.

    Tears are a love-mates humble gift
    When it's time to say goodbye,
    Though the eyes are wet and swollen,
    With time and patience they dry.
