Uncertain Times

Sleeping at night I dream of you
Seeing your face all beautiful but blue
I sigh inside as I understand your pain
Knowing it is none but I who have caused it

I know my time away is hurting you
Places I must go instead of being here with you
People otherwheres who belittle my mind
Making me long to find a place to hide away from all

I have been silent, more often than not
Words stuck in my throat waiting to be let out
Things that must be said, but not to you
My silence wrongly implicating you in your mind

Every time I get close to again being free
Another thing happens to send me away
The pain in your face saddens me
Causing my own pain to worsen

I promised my love for you
That has not changed
We promised to take the bad with the good
Until our dying days

This I promise from the utmost of my heart
And again every day from now on
To love you and cherish you
And never again be apart

Penned by my hand on the 11th of Aeguary, in the year 355 AF.
