Alone with my thoughts

So alone without my man
Would love to see him if I can
But he is very far away
In a place unsafe to stay

I want to feel his presence near
This wonderful man who is so dear
To let him know how much I care
My feelings for him, I want to share

So scared to commit to a man so far
Who is still fighting an invisible war
Can my heart take, this turbulent road
All sorts to think of, a heavy load

So I sit each night and think
Hours pass and I begin to blink
Each night I fight a constant battle
Until my brain begins to rattle

I want to make this work, I say
But that’s not easy day by day
Though I am grateful for the times we had
The time spent alone makes, me so sad
