Letters from you

Once in a midsummer afternoon.
Walking upon the shore.
We met by chance.
To our surprise to meet again

On a bright August noontide.
Watching the waves come crashing in.
We meet yet again.
We are surprised once more.



How oft tragedy brings joy.
One stormy midnight.
We both caught unawares.
To chance a meet in a small alcove.

Time moves swiftly by.
Separated by Oceans and Seas.
Our only solace and comfort.
To be found in letters from you.

Days turn quickly into months.
We last met in September.
How time can crawl.
When our thoughts are all but occupied.

Waiting by the door.
Waiting for your every letter.
To soak up your every word.
I know peace will spread through.



You have captivated my heart.
With the words you paint.
Your have drawn me in.
Colorful pictures of a world to be.

A life we will lead.
A heart that we will be.
One day soon we will see.
Together we will build this dream.

By the door I wait.
For the knock that will come.
My heart waits to leap.
To see you walk through into me.

A life we now live.
To hold each other forever and more.
