How time can make love grow
No matter how far apart you go
And all the things you do
Whenever we steal a moment or two
How pain seems somehow to mend
When we have reached the end
And have only ourselves once more
No one to blame, no one to scar
It’s such a sad thing which will never be
This connection between you and me
Why must I look in the mirror
And see myself getting unclearer
There’s got to be a reason or some rhyme
For my not being with you in time
But frozen and etched upon your brain
Echoing what might have been in every rain
There’s got to be some sort of place
For us to live face to face
Where we can be together
And not worry about the weather
And not a care in the world
Just you and me, a boy and girl
No one else needs to know
Nothing else matters in this place we go
It’s a way of making dreams deliverable
It’s the only way of making this life liveable

For some reason, I really like these lines.

"We'll chase them like rats across the tundra."

This brought fond memories of
Somewhere in Time

where fantasy gives hope a vision.

Very good, Jerry. Enjoyed this very much.

I like your poem.
