What is the hardest thing you have ever done?
Was it running off for training,
Was it leaving me to go fight a war that is not yours,
Or was it leaving me forever when you promised to come back.

I will always wonder why you left in the first place
You told me it was to protect peoples freedom
But it must have been something more
And now that your gone I will never know the truth

When I got that letter telling me what had happened, I cried
I don't think I have ever cried that much in my entire life
I took my engagement ring,
and I hid it away where I would forget about it and hopefully you along with it

I never could forget about you though
Your smile and just us being together
I am sad you had to leave,
But maybe heaven is better than this messed up world I live in
