I met you while I was crying
Myself to sleep every night
Rob is fighting for some cause
America doesn't even know about
You come along
And wipe away my tears
First a good friend
Then a thief of my heart
As I took yours
I am not so sure
What I'm supposed to do now
I met you while I was crying
Myself to sleep at night
You came along
And saved my heart
What will happen next?
Author notes
My wonderful boyfriend is out there somewhere in Baghdad. I'm so scared for his life, but I met a wonderful guy who knows about him... but still loves me. I've fallen for him too.

Anna, This is a hard decision and it is one you will have to make through your heart. If your love is as deep as you say it is for Rob then the choice should be very easy.
Thank you for sharing with all of us and I wish you the very best here. It's not an easy choice to make. Think what is most important to you and is it really love or someone who has been there to help you through. Keep the ink flowing. Love and God bless, Joyce

This poem is very loving and touched my heart so much. God bless you and your boyfriend will be in my prayers and I hope that God grants you strength to hang in there until his safe return. Keep up the wonderful work of art that you have here and I look forward to reading more from you. God bless you always in everything you do and write.
