Subject: In My Heart {Challenge Poem}

I sit at the station, alone and scared
The sounds of the trains whistle, echoes in the air
It has been a year since you were home last
Sent off to war and not knowing if you would be back

Our communication was scarce and short
As you fight to save us, from this bloody war
The train approaches, the cloud of smoke fills my eyes
The beating of my heart gets stronger as you arrive

Will he still love me with the secret I've kept?
For he never knew that day when he left
That I was with child, I gave him a son
His seed was implanted a new life had begun

As I hear the screeching brakes come to a stop
I make my way as I look into each window
You stand on the steps with luggage in hand
Your first words to me, it’s good to be on American land

I look into you coal dark eyes
That tells the pain of your life
Your lips so soft as I taste your kiss
The warmth of your arms that I have missed

Baby, please take this man home
I want to hold my son
My heart stopped for a second
How did you know, I never mentioned

He whispers softly in my ear
I felt it all along in my heart
