I promise you

One day I will see

your body walking towards me

and in my chest

my heart will be on fire

One day the curse of separation will finally lift

even though today I feel it disappear

for moments

as i surrender in solitude

to embrace the now

existing beyond thought.

Thoughts of holding you

are not like holding you

Thoughts of loving you

are not what it will mean

to show the earthly proof of love

in daily treats

of loving

There is an ache so deep inside of me

it seems so long

since loving eyes saw mine

So now I just exist on these

fleeting breaths of love

you send my way

words which tell of

never ending devotion

These may only be words

to everyone else

but never the less

they are precious

to my soul

One day will we meet?

or will earthly forces

defeat our innocent hope?

Today I keep the faith.

I will wait for you my love

I promise you
