Power of Love

Every day, I envision you,
I close my eyes and I can remember
how you feel in my arms,
your warm skin and soft lips
next to my own.
This is the thing
that keeps me going,
on these lonely days,
with us a world apart.
You keep me on track,
wading through this quagmire of humanity.
This long, lonely journey,
to the other side.
This powerful love I have for you
is what makes me able to do 
what I need to do
so I can some day
come home to you.
