Dear Uncle..

I miss you. 
Can you please drop your gun
    and just come home.
Even just for a day?
Can you just write back I need
    to know you are still alive.
Gee..
It's not the same.
When I hear a "Bang" from the tv
    I cry thinking of you.
It's not the same.
Making jokes only you understand.

                       Fuck.

I know your fighting for
    your country,
But I need you since I have
    Been left here to decay alone.
I want you to know something,
I love you so much.
And I really need a hug from you.
You are a brother to me,
So close..

Years go by,
Still no letter, still I cant
    see you or touch you.
A terrible feeling fills my gut.
No matter where you are,
You are my life.
My Hero.

                              Yours Truly,,
                                 Your Niece.
