It's been such a long time since I've looked at his face. I mean really looked at it, studied it. That's when I saw all the little scars. From all the battles he has been in over the years. Then I looked into his eyes and there too I saw scars from the war. Not a part of him, physical or mental, has not been touched by the pain and loss of the war. At that moment the only thing I wanted to do was to make him feel better. Hug and kiss away all his pain, but I knew there wasn't enough love in the world to take away his pain right now.
It's been a few years since the war has ended. I think about the night it did and I look at his face once again. The scars have faded to where you can barely see them. When I look in his eyes though you can still see all the pain. The only thing that the war didn't take away. But now I can try to kiss away the pain as we have been together for a while, I think he might pop the question tonight.
We were at the train station, dropping off our kids. He was talking to them, saying his goodbyes until Christmas. I looked into his eyes and I saw nothing but love and happiness. When he looked at me and frowned, I knew he saw the pain in my eyes. Seeing my babies off to school, growing up much too fast for my liking. He just hugged me close and told me that everything would be okay. That they would be just fine, better off than we were at their age. I believed him and we walked away knowing that life was good, for the moment at least.
