What If?

Every time I look into your eyes I close my eyes and you are clear as the skies I hold your hand as I walk along the pier Alone but hoping you feel me near How I laugh drinking a glass of wine with you The empty chair suggests my life is so blue The movie we watch, cuddled up together Reality strikes as I get up turn on the weather We plan a trip out to visit the beach I can see you but you’re forever out of reach Rain falling down on our soft warm skin To hold you forever made to feel such a sin To think all this was what could have been true Knowing now my whole life was meant to be with you Gifted in life with the experiences I’ve had All the rocky roads I’ve travelled, for that I’m glad Even though I’ve felt untold pain through time Feeling blessed in life that you and I are here, so sublime So never wanting to feel this anguish again Holding on to endless love is something I want to ascertain

This is much more enchanting to read than MY if poem that you commented on, Gareth! Alas, I really really do hate cleaning becuase it's time I just don't want to take from my many interests. However, I AM spring cleaning this month and it is killing me. haha. LUv, Andrea
