In a voyage of Love
My senses have embarked
My eyes cannot see you
My hands cannot touch you
Nor can my skin feel your warmth
My sense of smell cannot reach you
And my ears cannot find your voice
But wait!
Hasten the shadow
That obscure the Sun.

If my eyes can gaze upon the sea
There you shall be
If the Sun can luxuriously
Tantalize my skin
It's the silky touch of your hands I feel
And when the wind, reeking exotic fragances
fills my being with its rich aromas
It brings to memory
The familiar scent of you

And I find myself loving the essence
Of your image imbedded in my mind
As if you were sitting by my side
The sweet breeze
That softly grases my lips
Is like that kiss that never was
But in my dreams...
And in those dreams, you loved me
As if tomorrow's existance were in doubt.

No promise was spoken
No goodbye's were said
And in the mists that shrouds the Sea
Drifting images of things that cannot be.

Lovely, juanita! I love the lines "But in my dreams...And in those dreams, you loved me
As if tomorrow's existance were in doubt."

The only man worth your tears will never make you cry...
