I feel all of you slip away.
All that I feel so deeply for.
I love you.
And it always will be this way.
I love you as deeply as my bones
Are dense.
Tingling through
To the aches of the winter’s lonely chill,
To the warm embracing sun.
It was never all for not.
And though I chose to be where I am
I hope not to lose you.
But if I do l, I know,
The times we danced were of great significance.
The gift I received
Was seeing your beautiful smile.
Teeth poking through your lips
That press together a lot.
It played music in my eyes,
Even now,
And it was real.
