*~ Soldier*~

we were always together
people didnt know what to think
because it was always you and me
we were of different age groups
we called our selfs the loud ones of the town

we never liked to be seperated
becasue we were always together
even though we were torn apart
torn apart by war
we only had a few days together

my life changed that day
that day i said goodbye to you
you left for 1 year
a year that killed me
we kept in touch with emails, and letters

emails and letters didnt help
becasue they always made me cry
I didnt mean to cry when you wrote me
i loved to get your letters and emails
i was like a little kid at christmas

everything changed when we got your last letter
i was scared , and crying , and lost
you were part of my world
you were always there for me
and now i wasnt gonna have anyone

my life changed
when all this happened
you were like a brother to me
you helped me through everything
you were always making me laugh
you were the one who i cried to

my dear friend you were always there
you were like my brother
you helped me through everything
you were like a brother watching me
my day is gone

my day is gone becasue your gone
your smile is still in my mind
your mom is sad and crying because your gone
she calls me to make sure Im ok
I tell her I am

I tell her I am ok
but i really am not
i dont tell anyoen this
but, I cry my self to sleep
I cant stand not having you hear

My world changed when you were K.I.A
I locked my self away from everyone
I lost my chance for the softball team
Im mad at that
that i didnt get on the team

Im so sorry that i didnt make it
i knwo you were praying that i made it
i didnt want to let you down

Im still talkin to you
i know you cant hear me
but im still talkin to you
i miss you so much , it hurts
peopel dont kow what im going through

loosing some one like you hurts
becasue you were like a brother to me
my heart still cries when i see your picture
when i hear your voice on movies i cry
when i look at your uniform i see you in it

When ever I hear a Marines story i think of you
becasue you were a U.S.M.C Marine
You were one at heart, and in spirit.
The marines did you good both ways
both in body and in heart

Please always remember "SEMPER FI"
Always Faithful my friend
Marines are always faithful
they protect one another
Marines are a family
A family of the few the proud

My baby you are mine
becasue of who you are
becasue of the kind of person you are
i never got to tell you this
but you were the only one who understood me

everyone has tired to help me
but there is no help to give
because i lost something more precious to me
there is no replacing you
becasue you are one in a million

Everything changed when you left
because when you died i died with you
Everything has changed that day
that day that you died
that day that you said goodbye to the world

What were your last words?
I know they were "SEMPER FI"!
