The Soldier

Families left behind for families abroad.
Leaving one to aid another.
Sad goodbyes and tears are shed
For duty calls.

A soldier sacrifices.

Days are spent in unfamiliar land,
Far from where their heart lies.
Facing danger where they stand
Because duty calls.

A soldier sacrifices.

And sometimes they sacrifice it all.
