my little soldier

By Richard J Sereday Jr

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

He said………….. They took my heart and gave it a tweak, but right now I’m feeling kind of weak, so I hope you don’t need to see me smile, I’m afraid that will take a little while. Maybe a week, maybe more, right now I’m try to keep from falling on the floor. and I say to this very day………. he is my little soldier, brave as he can be, and if I had the choice in his bed is where I’d be, but I didn’t have a choice, it was for him to do, his heart was the one that needed the work, we found out about it when he was brand new. My heart isn’t as good as can be, and he got his bad one from the genes in me, And I am as sorry as I can be, but I didn’t have a clue. So, would I have brought him into the world in this way, if I’d have known then what I know today, I guess I’d have it no other way, cause I love him more that life itself.
