![]() If only I could see your face… If only I could cross this space… between us… If only I could kiss your lips… Caress you with these fingertips… so gently… If only I could hear you say… your love grows stronger every day… and always… If only I could be with you… I’d make all of your dreams come true… forever… If only in some distant time… we’ll meet, we’ll know, and then we’ll find… a lifetime… If only…just two simple words… that from my heart take flight, like birds… to find you… I’ll wait for you, as I do now… my heart responds in silent vow… ~ to love you ~ ~ But if only ~ ~ If Only ~ Follow your dream! |

Sunny, this is a beautiful poem, makes the heart aflutter...If only...ah, beautiful. Tossing words like wishful coins into the deep well of an open heart. R. fox |
