October

Close to the end of October
Fall is the right word I would use,
I have love and happiness
But still in the end I could lose.

What used to be my favorite season
Is now my least favorite of all,
Because once November comes
No one will catch my fall.

I have everything I could ask for
A husband and a little girl,
But without the 2 of them
There goes my world.

Any day now
They'll call my husband to leave,
7 months he'll be gone
Its hard to believe.

I can feel the tears rolling
I miss him already,
Its my first time of independence
I'll try and take things steady.

My heart is aching
I fear for him out there,
I feel safer when he's in my arms
Its a breath of fresh air.

Only a few more days
To enjoy of this October,
Then along comes the lonely days
I won't have you to see when I look over.
