Poem
I love thee my dearest from far across the sea, Prey soon and safely you’ll return home to me. When you had to leave with you my heart you did take, I promised that our sacred bond I would not forsake. Faithful I will be here on the other side of the world, Waiting anxiously with heart open and arms unfurled. True happiness and pleasure for me are denied, Until you return with great fanfare to my side. This tragedy accosted us with much warning, My battered soul for loss of you is mourning. Never knowing I could miss one person so much, I long to hear your voice and feel your soft touch. Days are long and lonely without your company now, I guess I manage to muttle through somehow. Hold your pillow close to my heart at night, And dream of times together till first light. I cannot select one thing I mostly miss, Is it your embrace, your smile, your tender kiss? Feeling quite paralyzed as if half of me is gone, I struggle to do my daily tasks finding it hard to go on. Whenever my phone rings I prey to hear your voice, Forced to be a victim without recourse or choice. I stair at our photograph with red and bloodshot eyes, The greatness of my inward pains more and more do realize. Reading our journal is an escape into the past, Memories of wonderful times I preyed would forever last. Politics and paperwork ripped you out of my arms, Separating us maybe forever and doing irreparable harm. Sometimes my desire to be with you again becomes desperate, I threaten to give up my life here and hasten to you to solve our plight. Often I think too much with my heart failing to use my head, As another Jeffless night I sternly dread. But you remind me to be cautious and wait, We must leave this challenge to the hand of fait. If our love is truly meant to last forever, This is only a test of our will to stay together.
