LOVED UP

LOVED UP

I hover on the bridge watching the rising waters flow
Wondering if, and when, love recedes where does it go?

But it will never fade away, it will remain within my heart
Love like ours cannot be denied, it bridges the miles that keep us apart.

Our house would be one where only love resides
Where the way we feel about each other never hides.

The poems we write to each other decorate the walls
Links in a chain, words the heart easily recalls.

From the start we spoke of love so naturally
And developed what has become our very own vocabulary.

It's good to have words and phrases that we always say
And to communicate our love many times every day.

A love that gets immortalised in words
Carried by the wind, hitching rides with birds.

Have you seen me lately hovering somewhere in your dreams
Understand 'tis I and everything is as it seems.

Living on different continents is a thief of our time
Crazy poets are we, always expressing our love in rhyme.

As you see me fading I sense you know I have been
Nothing, not time nor distance can stop what is there, between
Every folded page of our book, a love that is forever and serene.
