I have only been gone a handful of days
Three days and three nights
It feels as though
I left an eternity ago
I still smell your perfume
Lingering on my cloths
Even though it feels I haven’t
Seen you in forever
My case is still full
My “bed” unmade
I wait for the day I will see you again
I dream of me there, all warm in our bed
Cuddled and snuggled as the fire bled
The ice and the frost only drawing you near
To the point that I hear your heart beating in my ears
The sweetest of rhymes that I long for my dear
The sound of your voice is all I dream of here.
The nights here are nothing so dear
The heat is unbearable the nights drone on
I fall asleep to the sound of a hundred heartbeats gone wrong
I’ve only been here a few days but I long for you all the same
But I promise my dear I will make it home to you
Nothing to fear
I will be home with you as the winter draws near.
