It has been one year. One year since Melissa Archer, has seen her husband, Jonathan Archer, Captain of the USS Enterprise. She wonders wonders if him and his fellow crewmates are alright. She looks over at her and Jonathan's wedding photo, taken on their wedding day in April 2150. Melissa wore a peach colored lace and chiffon sweetheart strapless neckline dress, with her dark chocolate brown locks up in a princess style hairstyle. Her eyes are a gorgeous emerald green, and her skin is like a fair/golden tannish shade. Her beloved is wearing his Starfleet uniform, with one arm wrapped around her waist, and one of her arms around his, with her red and pink rose boquet in her hand.
She then thinks of what would happen if he was to be killed or how long he was gone. Melissa then remembers the lyrics to a song by 20th century country singer Randy Travis, which is called My Greatest Fear. She thinks of the lyrics as she stands in front of the large bag window of her home, as her hair is down, aand she's wearing her longsleeve nightgown.
Sometimes many miles may lay between us
But only for the job I choose to do
And one thought helps me through my darkest hour
Each mile brings me closer to you
Please believe you're all I ever wanted
If you should leave, I don't know what I'd do
I'd be like a child afraid of darkness
The greatest fear I have is losing you
Heaven knows I've always had these demons
Watching for a place to take control
Whispering you'll never be there for me
Waiting at the end of my road
Please believe you're all I ever wanted
If you should leave, I don't know what I'd do
I'd be like a child afraid of darkness
The greatest fear I have is losing you
Alone I wonder through this world, no meaning in my life
And I found you and finally saw the light
So please believe you're all I ever wanted
If you should leave I don't know what I'd do
I'd be like a child afraid of darkness
The greatest fear I have is losing you
The greatest fear I have is losing you
"Oh, Jon. I miss you so much. Please be safe my love and come home to me. Come home safe." Melissa says as she rubs her hands over her arms, to keep warm, as she stares up at the San Francisco night sky.
Dedicated to my best friend, Amy Rosalyn Henderson (1995-2016), who recently passed away from the complications of colon cancer at the age of 21.
