Parachute Jump

Will you still love me when I am away,
away in some distant land of war and peace.
Will you forget about me when I fly away?
Will I parachute jump back to find an empty home,
where all our promises of love have been broken
like the shattered glass on the floor I found on my return?
Was your love conditional upon my physical presence
and not on my heart's omnipresent love?
I loved you and now you are gone.
I came back as I said,
but you did not stay.
