When We're Apart

When we're apart.
Each night I'm awake and thinking.
The journey which you and I,
Together, hand in hand, eye to eye,
Heart to heart set upon our road.

I toss and turn over in my mind,
Beautiful each memory, which you,
In your grace bestowed upon my heart.
To your heart, arm in arm, touching souls.
How could I forget, the doors found open
Trusting my wife, I followed through.

Remembering now,  each new field view.
Timid at first, like children, steadily grew.
Heart to heart, face to face, more vivid,
Passion slew demons past, even future's fear.

Like seasons, constant yet changing.
Fulfilled dreams, which we have spoken.
You a fire before me warming any cold.
Engulfing my desire for us, all consuming,

Encompassing all we share. Each field view,
Dream and moment ever spent with you.
Passion from hearts torn. Love as beautiful as dawn.

Winter's forgiven at the spring's morn.
Light Shines towards secrets shore. Soul's scared,
Scarred, belief laid bare, beloved. Dark desires drawn.

Touching together trading for more.
What we share is worth much more, than diamonds
On demand, or treasures on distant shores. Our jewels in hand Truth forever sworn, honest as the stars.

Strength in our dreams as fantasies avail, my bride now unveiled.
The next vision, like prison, captured special moments.
The mind's eye relives. And I awake,
Toss and turn thoughts of you return.
