I have always been
Your love
and yours alone
Yet you handled me
as the wind carries
rain
My heart is humongous
to Them
For you, it was this small
Tender, fragile even
I know
that’s no prize
It is simply how I am
I need care
in return
In return I give and share
with eternal wonder
for your beauty
Beauty of heart, purpose, soul
Love, love
for you
I cannot be treated
callously, indifferently
by You
My freedom is in fairness
as is yours
Definitions similar, realities differ
And so we drift 1,000 miles away
In spirit
Next door in reality
Today, I surrender again
Goodnight my love
Rest well
Christmas is for birth
Valentines for love
Easter, resurrection
Maybe
together again
this spring?
I have always been
Your love
and yours alone
