Dreaming of You

I'd love to lay you down to sleep
And hold you close all night
To feel your fever touch my heart
You make every thing feel right

If tomorrow never came
Or if somehow I died
I really wouldn’t want
You to be by my side

My days in hell
will end soon, my love
It’s you I’ll be thinking of
When I pray to God above

Because I so long to hold you
Be there when you wake
Tomorrow is just the start
Of so many nights we'll make

Author notes

Another From the Book Emotions of an American in Iraq, I sometimes wonder if the ladies back home relize just how much we miss them.

Please tell me what you think

    very nice write, so sad in the content that it conveys in the thoughts. this bring back memories of the nights I spent reading your book and the conversations that we had as I got to know you. I hope things are going well for you. I hope you have found some peace since your return. Hugs come to you.
