I'm as strong as you make me.
Loving a soul far greater then he sees.
Cement where my knees fall,an echo of a phone call.
In the beginning I am Weak.

I'm as fragile as you make me.
Caring for a spark in a smile far brighter then he sees.
He'll be a solider,He will show us.
The ink lines of our letters
"with love" he signs, he's careful.
The days pass, I am weak.

I'm as kind as you make me.
Sweet words whispered on page,things you can finally say.
Missing you more,tally mark the days.
He'll be a hero,this I know.
The months pass,I am weak.

I'm as patient as you make me.
I understand now times get busy,no down time to be lazy.
Light out,get some sleep.
Tomorrow you can write me.
I'll be here.
For I'm as strong as you make me.


The author's comments:
Being in love with those who can't always be with you is perhaps the hardest thing any man or women can ever be a part of.
We have all heard the term "Army Strong" used to describe the soldiers fighting for our country, but it's the strength that stands behind those soldiers at home that make the difference.
