A Sweet Reminesce (To My Loved One James Kendrick)

So far away so said thy fate,
And only a promise to one day return.
It could be months, but likely years,
So, distance must I learn.

Never cried a tear so hard,
When I had to let you stay,
As behind I left you with a tender kiss,
As I flew so far away.

And when I tremble in the pain,
The love and beauty I must recall.
Memories, memories hold me up,
And please don't let me fall.

To reminesce on your soft lips,
That whispered in my ear,
Many a times throughout the night,
Those words I love to hear.

A night to sleep upon your chest,
And listen to your heart. 
And through the songs it sang to me,
I knew we'd never really be apart.

And you held me so close,
Kept me safe; kept me warm.
You were there to wipe away my fears,
And save me through the storm.

I gave to you not only my heart,
But my life and innocence.
And in that I also handed you,
My soul, in a sense.

I love you James. . .

great write. i believe your soul is yours to keep... no one can take it and it cant be given freely. its the one constant in life... the only thing that will be there with u during the darkest hour, your best friend, its what talks you into going back home after a long ride down suicide drive, love yourself and everything else will fall into place ;). p.s. i see you been quite busy since the last one i read... look forward to reading more
