A lady in waiting that is what I am, for waiting I must do to see my man. I must wait while my man risks his life for the country he loves so much. I do not know if he will return whole, I do not know if he will return at all. At night I light my protection candle for him and I pray that he returns. Will he come back to me the same, or as a changed man? How long must I wait to hold him again, a few months or for eternity? The sun rises again as I blow out the candle. I hope it is not a sign that his life is as gone as the flame. Tears begin to pour, but a lady in waiting must not show emotion. I will be strong for him. I will wait for his return. I will not despair. The days and the months go by. A letter comes and a letter goes. How much longer must I be a lady in waiting? The day passes and the night returns. I light my candle and say my prayer. I stare at the flame, sleep will not come. A letter comes for me. It is a message of death my heart tells me. I open it and fall to the floor, heart wrenching screams fill the air. A lady in waiting am I. A lady in waiting I will always be.
