Love Letters

Love letters sent in times of old With careful words so written bold And yet there were words hidden there So many thoughts of her despair… When in his arms she’d be again If only she could know just when On the surface her words were clear But in between were words of fear. She must not let him see her pain That thru the war their love would wane But when the war did finally end It vanquished all the doubt she penned! Love letters finally put away When he came home, resolved to stay.
