Just one letter from you that's all I ask I know our romance was way in the past Strong promises you made before you left A letter each week, you'd give me your best They said you were among all the missing I was told no more, it was a secret mission If we had married like you wanted us too A family I'd have, but just loneliness I brew Everyone thinks I'm a foolish old lady Possibly even a little bit kinda crazy Truth be told life is stranger than fiction I'm sticking with my one true conviction Somewhere out there you might still be alive With this thought every day is how I thrive From this little piece of land I'll never move No better way my eternal love for you I prove Author Eileen Clark 2023

Eileen, I love this poem so much. It’s deeply moving. There’s something in it for everybody who chooses to see. Perhaps that is the special quality of poems that spring from the heart. Hopeful and warmly eternal.
