"12 Hours"

“12 Hours”

12 hours along in my head

12 hours with endless waves of dread

12 hours waiting to hear you speak

12 hours of happiness, I wish I could seek

12 hours reliving every moment with you

12 hours of seeing the moment you’ll say ‘I Do’

12 hours of wondering if I could take away the pain

12 hours more of being stuck in a cloud of rain

12 hours of heartache, my chest so tight

12 hours of counting the days until I am in your sight

12 hours of thankful of the love you give to me

12 hours without you feels like an eternity

This was something that I wrote while serving in Iraq and being away from the woman I love. Its about being away from her during this tour
