Incarcerated Love

It is the stillness of the night
My soul cries out to you and I hear your whispers 
So near yet so far apart
But nothing stops us spiritually being together.

My love for you transcends time and space,
My wishes for your freedom is sent to the heavens
I would give my life for you to be free once more.

You are my life, my one and only 
I speak from my heart and soul
Without you by my side, I am empty
My love for you is all that makes me carry on.

I can see you but once a week
I travel to and from where you are for six hours to be with for all but half an hour
I would cross oceans just to be with you
and to look into your eyes.

My love, be strong, I am always with you
I am always here for you, I will never let you down
I will never leave
and wait for you no matter how long it takes.

All because I love you.
