In Another Time, Another Land

My love for you is eternal,
A flame that only grows.
My love for you is strong,
Like a river as it flows.

I did it to save you,
To save you from death.
Why I couldn't,
I can only guess.

I miss you,
My love,
My light,
My dove.

Where have you gone?
What have I done?
The guilt is pain,
And light? I have none.

You were my light,
My darling dear,
And I left you
For something I fear.

I am nothing without you,
And I am afraid.
I miss you,
My eyes are full of pain.

My heart aches to touch you,
To hold your hand.
But perhaps, my darling,
In another time, another land.
