Things I Should Have Said

"Take all the time you need, my love.
I know that things are tough.
Though being apart hurts my heart,
For now this is enough."

"Your dreams are mine as well, you know.
For you I want the best.
Right now you must do what's right for you.
To me leave all the rest."

"I'm doing fine out here again,
Despite always missing you.
We will endure until I'm home once more.
This we both know to be true."

"So don't worry about me yet, my dear.
Focus on your plans instead."
In my ears it rings, the sound of these things;
Things I should have said.
