Thank You Soldier

I saw a soldier in his uniform and
I ran up to him and gave him a hug.
He looked young barley 35
I didn't know him and he didn't know me
but he bent down and welcome it.

I told him thank you and that because of him
I wake up to a place where people are not killing others
and children are not holding guns.
I'm able to wake up to a place where people  help others
I'm able to text  my friends and able to call them up
when I miss their voices.

but he bent down and welcome it.

I told him thank you and because of you
that I was able to go to a high school
that had four walls, books, desks, and computers
but the best part is that the staff cares more about the student than the work.
That different ages are allow to come together and give the chance to
be friends
to find love and
to have fun.
because of him I'm learning about things that I may be helpful in life
and the lessens only the teacher can teach because of their experiences
instead of learning how to clean, hold, and fire a gun
or how to make a bomb.

I told him thank you for your time
and giving up that time with your friends and family
and putting yourself in harms way
to keep our freedom and keeping us safe and sound.
I know it couldn't have been easy being away from those you love
and not knowing if you will see them again.

Now please go home hug your love ones
you given up so much
so we would never have to give up our freedom
and from my heart thank you because of you
i able to do the little things in life that means so much to me
and because of you your love ones and my and the world's
are safe and sound.
