His Words

It was his words I fell in love with first
For each rendition I had a thirst 

His voice so melodic like music it flowed
Every note in each sentence seemed to
capture my soul

How pure and simple his message sent
Hours upon hours of listening spent 

Our lives came together precious moments
we did share, I felt so warm and welcomed
with his love and in his care

Then one day it happened as I guess I knew
it would, the long distance came between us
and so silently he stood

It is hard to keep the love alive when words
are all you have, his needs were more than
I could give how tragic and how sad

I am grateful for the time he gave his loving
words my heart will save

I loved him then, I love him still
I guess somehow I always will...

Was it as Linda guessed, a long distance relationship then? Or was it the same guy the topic of the blue Christmas poem? I enjoyed reading this one, keep up the good work. LUv, Andrea
