How we connected
is so beyond belief.
Our Yin and Yang is poised
as the moon
speaks of the tides.
We thrived on the other
as dusk waited for the dawn.

We gave our love
and it thrived within us.
Passions bloomed
with each passing hour.
Ours were the greatest joy
from your heartbeat to mine

Distance kept us apart
but we walked as though one.
We were like Jupiter's rings
separated but whole.
I breathed in; you exhaled
that's how it was for us.

A truly remarkable poem Mr. Bolton that articulated it's way into my own experience. Case in point:
quote:
"Distance kept us apart
but we walked as though one"
Brilliantly relevant!

Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here...
