Before he was mine
He did what he could
To protect our freedom
Not just mine and his
But every American

You see, before he was mine
He belonged to the army
He belonged to the country
He got hurt in the war
I’m so proud of him

Before he was mine,
He was in Iraq
Fighting the fight
His heart beat
For the American future

Before he was mine
He was in my heart
Before I met him
He was my hero
Before he was mine

A man in uniform
Doing what he had to do
I cried over his scar
Left by a bullet
Before he was mine

I love him more
Everyday I think
About what he did
To protect my country
Before he was mine

I now wear his ring
And share his name
But can’t stop thinking
Of all he did for us all
Before he was mine

I liked this it was reallt sweet and it had a good ending... I really needed to hear a good ending for once. I think I remember you I'm sure awhile ago I read one of your poems. Great to have you back.
