I'll Find You | WWII Love Story | BL
❝We met beneath a sky of grey,
Two kids in boots, untouched by war's cruel way.
You swore we'd both return to see the sun,
Yet war's shadow loomed, and too soon bootcamp had begun.
The nights were cold, yet warmth would always creep,
A glance spoke volumes when words were far too deep.
When training was fierce and long,
Our bond felt like a sweet song.
When they sent us far away, divided by the fight,
Your voice gave way, like whispers lost to the night.
I searched for you when letters were sent astray,
But found no trace, no sign to guide my way.
The war was won, yet still, I lost you here,
A name I'll never find, a memory unclear.
Did you survive, or were you left in the cold?
A whispered dream, a story left untold.
As I stand here again, where the leaves still had dew,
Your last words hang in the air-"I'll find you."
But time moves on, and what we were is gone,
Yet still I wait, as all moves on.❞
-A poem by me
This book is based on a poem I wrote for school (lol)
Reserved recon soldier Elliot and free-spirited James meet at bootcamp and form an unexpected bond that deepens into love. As war tears them apart-James to the trenches, Elliot behind enemy lines-their letters become lifelines. But when James's letters stop, Elliot is left with fading hope and a vow to find the man he loves, no matter the cost.
This book is finished, but I will be editing it in the future to add more details and to once over it and make sure it is good! Please lmk if you find any plot holes and such :)
I want to get better at writing
This book should be as historically accurate as possible. If not, please contact me and let me know!
