My love, my heart, my home,
Tonight, I sit in silence, alone.
The stars still shine, the moon still glows,
But without you, time moves slow.
Missed calls feels light, cold and wide,
No warmth of you here by my side.
The laughter we share, the touch of your hand,
Are now just echoes in this lonely land.
Machakos holds you for just a while,
But still, I ache to see your smile.
The days feel long, the nights are blue,
Each moment, my love, I long for you.
I miss the way you call my name,
How love’s soft whispers light the flame.
Your voice, your scent, your gentle kiss,
All the things I deeply miss.
Yet even in distance, our love stays strong,
For in my heart, you still belong.
So count the days, my love, my dear,
For soon, you’ll be back, and I’ll hold you near.
Safe travels, my queen, come home to me,
For in your arms is where I’m free.
