A Soldier's Heart: A Letter to Mum

In the silence of battles,

where courage takes flight,

I think of you, Mum,

in the depth of the night.

Through all of the chaos,

your love holds me near,

a reminder that home

is where the Heartbeats clear.

With every long struggle,

I find strength in your name,

a soldier's love for his mum

he is missing.

You send me your warmth

in each thought that I share,

a bond that is timeless,

a love beyond compare.

When the world feels uncertain,

your spirit guides me,

with memories of laughter

that set my heart free.

So each precious moment,

no matter the cost,

I carry your love mum,

my pulse, my life.

Through days bleak and weary,

your heart shines so bright,

in the shadows of war,

you’re my beacon, my light.

I hold you close, dear Mum,

as the battles unfold,

for in your love's embrace,

I find courage untold.

I look at your photo

and cry each night,

being without you

just isn’t right.

God bless you, Mum;

tears flow now from my eyes.

I will end with I love you, Mum

I can’t say goodbye.

    Good job on capturing the emotions of most soldiers and sailors and their love for their moms (mums).
