Of all we've been through,
this has been the most difficult;
a war we didn't want,
but you have served so valiantly.
My pride in you has always been great,
but it grows with each day
that I am near you
knowing soon you will walk away
once again
to do your duty as expected.
Did I tell you I already miss you
and that your heart is safe with me?
As time grows nearer,
my heart grows more heavy
with the pain of missing you
and the fear I have in my heart.
You gave me your heart once,
and you continue to leave it with me,
in my loving care each and every day,
and I know you'll hold mine as well--
lovingly, longing to hold me
as my arms ache for you.
Of all the men I ever met,
you are the one who holds me closest
to your heart,
our minds connect as one
as does our longing only for each other.
Worry not, my Love, that I will stray,
for I cannot;
you hold me captive within your eyes
that I will see in my dreams each night
until you return to me.
