<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alone in the night she calls to him<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but he does not hear her words<\/p>\n\n\n\n

she reaches out to where he once slept<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and is filled with such despair<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She imagines his touch his gentle caress<\/p>\n\n\n\n

his kisses how sweet they were<\/p>\n\n\n\n

she longs to see that beautiful face<\/p>\n\n\n\n

as he once lovingly stroked her hair<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slowly it all comes back to her<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the terrible news that they brought<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the war the killing the lives that are lost<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the hearts beyond repair<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She thinks of him in the cold hard earth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

where they placed him yesterday<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and as the tears run silently down her face<\/p>\n\n\n\n

she offers up this prayer<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you, Lord, for the time we had<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and for the love of this wonderful man<\/p>\n\n\n\n

watch over him protect him<\/p>\n\n\n\n

always keep him in your care<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make sure he knows that I love him<\/p>\n\n\n\n

that he is in my heart every day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and that he knows that I cherish always<\/p>\n\n\n\n

those incredible years that we shared<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The morning comes and she arises<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and goes about her day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but she knows that she is never alone<\/p>\n\n\n\n

for she feels him everywhere<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alone in the night she calls to him…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
