Because I love you

Because I love you, I have endured the last
nine weeks.
Often facing each day, With tears
streaming down my cheeks

Because I love you, I found the strength to
let you go.
Knowing in my heart, That we both needed
to grow.
Because I love you , I somehow found a way,
To make it through the weeks, counting
down each and every day.
Because I love you, I hold you close within
my heart,
Reminding myself daily, Of why we are
apart.
Because I love you, I stand faithfully by your
side,
Heart and soul soaring, With overwhelming
pride.
And becasue I love you so much, I wilingly
face this uncertain life, For I know that
some would not, "Choose" to be a "Navy
Wife"!
