There's a song inside me for you alone,
It's mellow and carefree and just for you,
I give you the words in form of poems,
Now you have a part of me that is true.

In the morning I awake; you are there,
In my thoughts I see your kissable lips,
It's as though we've spent the night together,
Too soon I discover it's a mind trip.

It's great, Jerry!
And maybe sad.

I don't think there's anyone alive that hasn't felt that way one time or another.
You've captured the idea very well in this short piece, it's a great read!

true love never looks after it's own interests

And as long as there is this song, it is not really sad, isn't it, Jerry.

There is great comfort in being able to feel close even at distance.

Beautiful.

Yes, I so agree with you, Margherita. One can carry love although there are great miles between them.
