Farewell at Dawn

In the quiet of the breaking dawn, under the grey sky's gaze, I stand alone, where the tracks and horizon seem to embrace. The whistle blows, a mournful sound that echoes deep within, As I watch you board that military train, a journey grim. Farewell, my love, as you fade into the mist, A silhouette against the dawn, by the morning kissed. The weight of war, on your shoulders lies, Leaving tears unshed, and a heart that cries. The clatter of the rails, a rhythm of impending fate, Carrying away the brave, leaving hearts desolate. In your eyes, a promise made, to return when the war is done, Yet, in my heart, a fear whispers, what if that day never comes? Underneath the stoic skies, we shared our silent goodbye, No words could capture the sorrow, nor the reasons why. The train fades into the distance, a specter of what's to come, Leaving me with memories, and the beating of the drum. Farewell, my love, as you vanish into the light, A hero in the making, embarking on the fight. Though miles and wars may divide us, in my heart you'll always stay, Until the tracks lead you back, to where love finds a way. Though miles and wars may divide us, in my heart you'll always stay, Until the tracks lead you back, to where love finds a way. In the deep of night, I'm lost in thought alone, Lights dimming out, wandering in memories I've known. Cold stars outside the window silently twinkle, Reflecting your silhouette, my guiding light, so gentle. Farewell, my dear, carried away by the breeze, Your courage illuminates the dark frontiers with ease. Though war divides us, our love remains true, Until the tracks bring you back, to the harbor of my heart's view. Dawn will break, bringing the light of peace so bright, Meeting in dreams, through the quiet dusk of night. Days of waiting feel like eternity's span, But our faith is strong, love as fresh as when it began. Farewell, brave one, as your figure fades from sight, Your name is etched in my heart, never to alight. Though times may change, I yearn for our next meeting day, In a world without war, where together we'll forever stay. so bright, Meeting in dreams, through the quiet dusk of night.

Farewell, brave one, as your figure fades from sight, Your name is etched in my heart, never to alight. Though times may change, I yearn for our next meeting day, In a world without war, where together we'll forever stay. [outro] [end]
