"Dear diary,

 

I am so weary, even the simple act of writing is exhausting. But I do hope these few words convey the boundless joy and gratitude I am feeling: a letter from Joseph has arrived! A wonderful letter, a most longed-for letter! He is on his way home! He writes that he will do everything in his power to be back in time. I am truly blessed to have such a devoted loving husband.

 

I must endeavor to be strong for him."

 

At last my love I’m coming home

Guided by the moon

When I return

The fields will be in bloom

And revived

 

Rest assured I’ll hold you again

Here within my arms

With every breath

The winds will see me through

We’ll survive

 

I carry you through the dead of night

Into the brighest light

 

I dream of you night after night

And of our precious child

With land in sight

No storm will be too wild

I will fight

 

I know your heart is longing for me

Our future is unclear

But love I see

Our bond will keep us here

And alive

 

The restless skies, the darkest of seas

I am longing to be at peace

The wind and hail, the thundering waves

I am destined to find a way

To save your life none could foresee

Don’t you ever lose Faith in me

We will endure, we most carry through

Let our hearts be as pure as gold

 

You will know the power’s still in me

Carry you into the bightest light

 

As last my love I’m coming home

Guided by the sun

Against the wind we will overcome

We are light

 

My love and tears devoted to you

Will heal my aching heart

When I return

We’ll heal, we’ll start anew

With our life
