a glance shared

                                     a moment stolen

instants that link lives in time

why must they

                           be

                                 so

                                        fleeting

when eternity is so long?

(sigh) Oh Sven, this is soooooo beautifully bittersweet, dearest friend, I too find that kind of sad how such precious moments drift by so fast, yet it is such a beautiful feeling to have them come and go always in true love too! (big hugggsssss) This is touching, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sven, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You left me much food for thought here, excellent expression and format.  You are perhaps the most versatile and creative writer I know.  

Take care,

You brought out eternity and temporality in a poem of small words and simple lines -- I love how you do that! Great stuff, Sven.

I would rather have one breath of his hair,
one kiss of his mouth,
one touch of his hand
than an eternity without it.
