A lovers prayer

Your glistening skin, the soft of your kiss, the eye's of a goddess who's smile I do miss. Your masterful skill, the strength of your arm, the path you chose to keep people from harm. Wake me my dear, come safely home, wake me my dear from being alone. Wherever you go . . . Wherever you are . . Know my dear lady; that my love is not far. . . When bullets are flying, my prayers do too. When bombs are falling, I'm praying for you. When the suns heat seems too hard to bare; know this my love I wish I was their. Though I am safe, and though I am home, I'm lost and afraid, and so very alone. I pray for you daily, I pray for you nightly, And when dreams come it's of holding you tightly. Come home safely for my sake. Wake me from this dream of being awake.
