Dying Down

You are risking your life for me. Everyday you are out there is another day not promised to us. Absense is supposed to make the heart grow fonder. But I've been away from you longer than I've known you and my heart is starting to shrink. The flame is dying down and I'm afraid. We said forever. I gave you a piece of me I will never get back: physically, emotionally, and monetarily. I should be happy and hopeful. But mostly I'm just afraid. I have fear nestled deep inside me because there is no going back now. I'm leaping off the highest cliff I've had to come to you and now I have doubt of jumping. I will be in debt to you for 5 years at least. I will be in debt to you for life. I've got this hope that the reuniting of us physically will make my heart and mind fall into place. I have to believe it will.
