"The Weight of Their Watch"

At the borders, lie Fragments of my heart, Scattered in places Where shadows loom. You were my knights, Shielding me from storms. Now, you guard a nation, Bearing battles far from home. You were our rainbows, Our auroras in the night— Once so vivid, so free. Now, in unknown lands, Facing unknown fears, Your colors remain, Hidden, but never lost. Desires buried, not broken. Happiness silenced, not forgotten. Standing strong, yet alone, Holding emotions too heavy to share. Still, you are my knights, My proud, unwavering knights. And here at home, we wait— Counting days, holding prayers, Dreaming of your return. Come back, my brothers, Let us unpack your colors again. Let joy spill from your laughter. Let home feel whole once more. Until then, my knights, I wish you strength, I wish you safety. I wish you home. ---
