Brave Little Soldier
KiKee May 2019
Brave little soldier who answered the call.
Brave little soldier,
Who must be bold and strong.
Brave little soldier,
You must carry on.
Brave little soldier,
Please come back to me.

A brave little soldier is who you are,
But don’t forget my brave little soldier.
It’s okay to let others help you.
You don’t always have to face it all alone.
Brave little soldier,
Let me catch some of your tears.
Brave little soldier,
I’m always here for you.

Brave little soldier,
Why must you fight if you don’t always win?
Brave little soldier,
Why do you go marching through hell and back again, asking for nothing in return?
Brave little soldier,
What’s it all for when those you are fighting for don’t appreciate it?
Marching through the valley filled with fear. You’re steps are sure and sturdy.
And you’re aim is straight and clear.

Brave little soldier,
Thro the enemy is stalking you just waiting for the ****.
Brave little soldier,
You’re like David slewed Galiath
You will claim this battle field.
Brave little soldier,
Must do what he can to keep us safe.
Brave little soldier,
Must take a stand for what he believes in.

You’re a brave little soldier,
A brave little soldier is who you are.
But don’t forget my brave little soldier.
It’s okay to let others help you.
You don’t always have to face it all alone.
Brave little soldier,
Let me catch some of your tears.
Brave little soldier,
I’m always here for you.

Brave little soldier,
Marching onward and standing tall.
Searching out the light of truth.
Knowing he did not start the war,
But it's a battle he cannot lose.
Brave little soldier,
Faith will be your armour.
Love will sword,
And my angels will be thy shield.
As you go off to defeat the enemy.
Brave little soldier,
Who he is so bold and strong.
Brave little soldier,
Who carry’s on when the battle is won.

You’re a brave little soldier,
A brave little soldier is who you are.
But don’t forget my brave little soldier.
It’s okay to let others help you.
You don’t always have to face it all alone.
Brave little soldier,
Let me catch some of your tears.
Brave little soldier,
I’m always here for you.
Originally this was/is a song written for a dear friend of mine. He is currently active duty with the military and he’s my brave “little soldier boy.”

I Miss You
KiKee Feb 2019
I miss you,
I miss you so bad.
And I really wish,
That I could say,
All that I need to say.

I miss you,
And how I wish.
I could have been able
to kiss you goodbye.
I missed telling you,
How much I love you.

I miss you,
And I won’t forget you.
Oh, it still saddens me,
That you had to go away,
And are no longer with me.

Oh how I remember it all so clearly,
It still feels like only yesterday.
The day we slipped away,
Was the day I found,
My life wouldn’t be the same.

Oh, how I miss you.
I really wish that,
I could see you again.
But I know that I can't,
And that what makes saying goodbye so hard.

I’d rather have you here,
Inside of watching over me.
But I know you're in a better place,
And I know you're where you need to be.

Oh, the day you went away,
Was the day my heart,
Found it won't be the same.
It’s feeling a different kind of pain
And it hasn’t beaten the same,
Since the day you went away.

Oh, I hope you can hear me,
I wish you were here with me.
I wish I could hold you,
In my arms once more.

Oh now you're gone,
Now we’re gone.
Somewhere we're not coming back.
There you go,
Here I stay.
Wishing for you too still be here.

Now you're gone,
Now we’re gone.
There you go,
There we go,
Blowing in the wind.

Now I've had my wake up,
Won't you wake up,
I keep asking why.
I keep questioning my faith,
And asking God to please bring you back to me.

I can't take it anymore,
I can’t fake it anymore,
I won’t pretend to,
Not missing you the way I do.
In my heart is where you are,
Until we can be together again.

This was something I wrote for my late grandparents and a dear friend as well. There love is my wind. I can’t see it, but I feel it.
