I thought you were gone ... Then I read your words: Talking of times in a romantic past, About a love that you cherished, seeming to last. Through subsequent ordeals that you bravely faced Deep in your heart, a yearning had surfaced; Into feelings familiar, that you didn’t know Were nurtured enough and continued to grow. Then I heard your voice: Angelic music, a symphony to my ears; My heart still leaped after all those years. Realizing love is more than just fun; It’s building bridges and cherishing the sun, Not just when it shines bright and warm: It’s relishing the calm that comes from the storm. Then I touched your hair: Soft to the touch, caressing my hand, Renewing an acquaintance from another land. When a smile formed on your sensuous lips, I couldn’t resist a soft gentle kiss. Time stood still as memories embarked; Butterflies danced, expecting passion to spark. Then I looked into your eyes: A glimpse of hope turned into surprise; Looking deep, there were no more lies. Magnetic attraction consumed my will, Like sipping fine wine, energized yet tranquil. Welcoming love with a desire to be whole We’re in heaven right now, reuniting our souls. |
