I sit here staring at your empty chair
Wishing you were here, not there
Wherever it is you may be
Hopefully you’ll come home to me
Months, weeks and days
All blend together in a haze
Until someone asks about you
Then the sadness feels anew
Sadness cause I miss you so much
I wish it was easier to keep in touch
Even though you are gone
Life at home will go on
I am proud of you
For serving our country as you do
