so the peace will come after the war
and I will return home my dear.
Wait for me.

Astudent from Italy wrote this letter to the front:
"I'll be waiting for you,
And I will be thinking of you
When the smell of roses in ourgarden envelops me
And the long summer days will seemendless without you.
I'll be waiting for you,
And I will feel that you are by myside
Knowing that
We look at the same bright moon inthe night.
'I'll be waiting for you,
Without leaving myself with tears
For your absence
I will be strong for you.
And I know you'll be back soon
And we will look into each other’seyes and
Life will flow again. ”
