Love Letter

I'm sitting at the window,
Wondering where he is.

He should be here by now,
I haven't seen a glimpse yet.

How could he stand me up like this?
I don't think I can wait much longer

30...

 40...

   50...

     AN HOUR!!...

Finally I see him
I run out of the house

Almost bumping into him
He has to have it today...

He smiles sweetly and nods his head,
We both know why I am there.

He hands me my mail,
and I quickly flip threw it.

A scream escapes my lips,
yes today it got here.

The love letter from my baby,
So far away, off at war.

I run to the house ripping the envelope open,
glancing over my shoulder I yell "thank you!"
