Your words are beautiful but bittersweet.
They prompt a rush of feeling.
I'm lying here at 5am,
Staring blankly at the ceiling.
I just got home from a night with friends,
Where there was but one thing amiss:
No sweetheart to dance with,
No tender face to kiss.
But I need you to know I'm here, my love,
Though we're 900 miles apart.
You are forever on my mind,
Your name is the beat of my heart.
Though things right now aren't perfect,
And we're not where we want to be,
In three weeks we'll be together,
The love of my life and me.
These simple facts surely you know,
That for always I will be here.
Though we will get angry, we'll fight, we'll cry,
Many things we will fear.
But despite it all we stay strong, my love,
Although it may not always seem true.
The light at the end of the tunnel, my dear,
Is a star for me and you.
I need you to know, for your peace and mine,
That alone you'll never be.
Soon this trying time will end,
And at last you'll marry me.
