The ink runs dry on trembling hands,
a soldier writes on foreign lands.
Aca ndle flickers, the shadows grow,
his heartbeat slows, yet time won’t show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“My love, the war has turned me stone,
yet in your arms, I’m flesh and bone.
The cannons roar, the trenches weep,
but thoughts of yOu are mine to keep.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The air is thick with the metal’s song,
the cries of men both weak and strong.
A brother falls, a foe stands near,
no victors here, just loss and fear.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“If I should die before the dawn,
do not forget where I have gone.
Among the ghosts, among the brave,
I rest in love, not in my grave.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The letter folds, his breath departs,
a bullet finds its place in hearts.
Yet far away, she reads his line,
and whispers back, “You’re always mine.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
