Jack's Promise

Do you still promise?
Are you still there?
Are you truly in my dreams
Or only in my prayers?
Do you still remember all the times we had?
All the victories, excitements, glories
And all the bad?

When you promised me,
We’d always have someday
And someday we’d have always
Were you really planning our forever
Or just a way to let me down gently

Wherever you are,
Do you miss me like I miss you?
Are you looking for that day,
When our two ones will become two?
Or are you busy with somebody new?

Have you moved on?
Or are you waiting for me?
Somewhere out there
By some alien sea
Or building us a cabin
Somewhere in the woods
Where duty can’t keep us apart?

Where are you now?
My heart misses you so
Our decades together
Were not long enough
We fought side by side,
Back to back and hand in hand
With our dear brothers
We set free many lands

Is the team with you?
Or are you looking for them?
Are we going to one day reunite the band?
Are they waiting for me?
Am I behind or ahead?
All I know for sure is that I’ve mourned
You all as being dead.

I miss my team, my friends,
Chosen kin as I miss you,
My one true love
I cannot wait until the day
When I can exclaim,
“You’re a sight for sore eyes!”
To you all.

Hopefully then, our battles will be at an end,
And we can just play, relax and explore
Us to as lovers with our friends forever more.

But if you have moved on,
And no longer dream of me,
Somehow just let me know,
So as I search the far stars,
I know I must let you go.
Perhaps then I’ll change my search
For a new love of my own.
But I cannot stop seeking you
Without knowing the truth.
