Separated By Distance But Not By Love

Separated by distance but not by love I feel your presence with me......... thus I survive but by your grace.... Distant though your kisses be they lie yet gentle upon my face While whispers of your heart to mine shout loudly in this place. Thoughts of you pour through my mind like rivers rushing full, Not only mind and body but on my soul those memories pull I think of days with sunshine rays as they danced upon our heads. Call I now upon those dreams to free me from my dreads Oft my arms have held you close as I breathed your breath exhaled Felt your heart in tune with mine, your love has never failed In days ago to my very soul my eyes did drink you in Cry they now in such despair for so long it has been Though been a while recount now I the beauties of your face It's of these things I think of while in this lonely place I think of nights and lovers delights as I loved you in our bed Written across this heart of mine is every word you said Your love, your caring, your tender touch did fill me with delight. I press each day to complete my task, but I dream of you at night These days will pass with labors done and the rushing to and fro While I'm away please feel my heart and know it loves you so Though the miles treat us harshly now I stand without despair For the day will come when I kiss your face and run my fingers through your hair I will hold you close and call your name, as the tears run down my face The joy so real as I stand once more in the presence of your grace I can not force that day to come any sooner than it will I've a task to do that's required of me and said task I shall fulfill Yet , pray see my face and feel my touch in the memories of your heart Know I do the same for you my love- as we spend this time apart.
