So Far

So far I've gone,
too far I've been,
to see you as you were.
A lonely heart,
a loving care.
So many places I have seen,
and suddenly apart.
Again you're close
and in my dreams,
whished we would never part.

There is a sense of longing that touches my heart in this poem, Gert. I hope your wishes come true. It's hard to live with only "dreams" to carry you through the day. Very nice write! Love, Carolyn
