In shadows cast by fleeting time,  
I wait for you, a silent chime.  
Dreams whisper softly in the night,  
But dawn brings doubt, a fragile light.  

Each moment stretches, heavy, long,  
A melody of hopes, a muted song.  
I grasp at memories, faded and thin,  
Longing for the day when we can begin.  

Will the stars align, or will they part?  
Is there a chance to heal my heart?  
In silent desperation, I quietly roam,  
Counting the days 'til you’re finally home
