A Quiet Hero

She wakes very early, he’s leaving today,
She will stand tall and proud as he’s walking away.
He glances back warmly at his children and wife,
Knowing they will bravely carry on with their life.
Her strength and her courage only one understands.
He is walking away with her heart in his hands.
For he knows that without it he would be lost.
But they both know freedom comes at a cost.
She walks away holding her children so close,
Swallowing tears for the one she loves most.
This quiet hero does not walk into war, 
She carries on behind her front door.
She will move through her life the wind at her back,
Determined to keep her family on track.
Her tears fall in silence while she lies in her bed,
her fear is right there but nothing is said.
She will ask that no medals be pinned to her chest.
Her husband’s safe return her only request.
Few understand her commitment, her life.
She is the quiet hero, the brave Sailor’s wife.
