You come and go as you traverse the sky Oceans apart still we never shall fall United beyond what passes these eyes For no Earthly sum would we miss it all From beginnings until ending’s sad sound We never asked for anything like this Just to keep heads in air and feet on ground But we betrayed ourselves with a first kiss Someday became one day then just never As the noise grew louder, hands to my ears The pain grew greater as I remembered That the loudest sound was us with you here Your beauty has been compared to the stars, Your absence is the silence that they are |

From beginnings until ending’s sad sound We never asked for anything like this Just to keep heads in air and feet on ground But we betrayed ourselves with a first kiss ~&~ All of the poem is remarkable, as only you can bring justice to such; remarkable the feel and presence, as if it were a first touch. ![]() Well done, m'friend. Very well done. |
