Leaving

He's leaving for Iraq and I don't know what to do
He's made his choice, he just doesn't care
I wish I could stop him but I know I can't
He feels like he can no longer bare
I will be here for him until the end
Praying and hoping everyday that he is gone
I will never give up on him
Even if I think he is wrong
He just wants it to be over and I know how he feels
But I don't want him to go away
I want him to stay here where I know he's alive
Where I know he's okay

when a dream is broken you learn to run from the nightmares maybe in iraq i can escape those nightmares that invade my sleep and maybe i cant but a peacefull end will make all the differnce id rather fade away surrounded by my brothers in arms then alone in the nightmares that are called dreams

Wow.. that made me cry a bit. I know he really does care and wants to be with you but he knows that he has to do this. He is probably doing it to protect you, not hurt you. He wants to make it safe for you and other people to. You are never alone. Remember that.
