So Now

SO NOW

I have come back to the place where I fell in love again
Fell in love with life, 
Learned of love again.

I  listened once again to the call to prayer, to the sounds of the sea.
To my heart. and remembered you.
And I knew that I had been given a gift
That would be with me forever.

And so I travelled away again
To an island, not far, yet another land
And here with a heart now open,
I loved again
And loved you again
For the time we had,
For the time, when everything was possible.

And so it was.
