Can it be?

I can’t see you.
But I do.
I can’t feel you.
But  I do.
I can’t hold you.
But I do.
I can’t warm you.
But I do.
I can’t kiss you.
But I do.
I can’t earn your trust.
But I do.
I can’t talk to you.
But I do.
I can’t dream about you.
But I do.
I can’t smell your hair.
But I do.
I can’t love you.
But I do.
I can’t be with you.
But I do.
Can’t you see.
Can it be?
Can it be?

Yes, in a word..

Hello my wonderful friend.
So nice to see your smile.
Glad to have you stopping by,
if only for a while.

Go with peace.
Return on love.

Thank you to all of you.

Ruth don't want to single you out here but

A candle will always be burning inside my heart. Love and hugs always and forever
