Poem Commentary

This poem is about my husband, Loren, who is currently in FT. Leonard Wood for boot camp. He is actively serving the United States Army and is a Mike 88-transportation/truck driver. It is a very dangerous job and he is likely to get sent over seas during his 3 year contract. I hope this poem conveys my worry, support and love. Thank you for reading =]

I Miss You

My husband. My best friend. My soldier.
I miss our night's together, snuggling into your shoulder.
I miss your smell and your laugh; your smile and touch.
Why didn't anyone tell m this would be so tough?
There is a bright side, however. This is it:
  The pain and loneliness is worth it in the end;
It won't be long until I'm in your arms again.
It is said that absense makes the heart grow fonder, well mine swells each and every day for you;
Aching with anticipation for you to come home, I hope you know this to be true.
I miss you, lovie, but I'm so very proud to be your wife;
This is a hard and dangerous job; thank you for risking your life =]
