I am late by a minute
To work hours and hours
As each day passes
Turned into months
Since you’ve been gone.
Oh how time flies
In this agonizing phase
Of waiting and wondering
Tell me
When will you be home?
I’ve been staring into oblivion
Wishing, hoping
That I could be with you
That I could share in your joy
And in your pain.
I know it’s been very hard
To put up this façade
To be away from home
To feel helpless
To see your love one suffer.
But you remain dedicated
Strong and unwavering
Full of hope
Living by faith
As you surrender all your fears unto Him.
You will hear no qualms
Only encouragement
So do not worry
It’s not always about me
For I will be patient.
I am one with you in this
I have seen for myself
My prayers are committed
To the healing
Of mind, body and spirit.
Man has endured well
As he fights the good fight
This battle has already been won
For him
By Him.
He will let you see
He will let you feel
His goodness
His greatness
His love.
He will reveal
And you will understand
You will believe
You will accept
His will be done.
