Someday we’ll meet upon the shore
where ocean tides have settled in
and then we’ll hold each other close
remembering how our love began

Someday I’ll hold you in my arms
and there beneath the skies of blue
I’ll recognize the love that’s grown
and give myself in love to you

Someday we’ll have that secret place
for all the tenderness within
I’ll rest my hands upon your face
and ache no more when joy begins

Someday the words we’ve said will fly
beyond the morning mist at dawn
and then, we’ll laugh and wonder why
we knew the words before the song.

Someday if life is real and sweet
I’ll whisper words to touch your heart
and then we’ll have the memory
that lingers long when we’re apart.

Until that day, my love, I’ll wait
and know you think of me and dream
and never doubt or contemplate
My love is real, as real can be.

Very moving poem...as I read it, it felt as though it was reaching out to me from the screen! I would title your poem..Someday, just my two cents worth!

"we knew the words before the song"...

nice phrase.. almost like " I knew I loved you before i met you".

but.....more creative.

I really like this line, would like to see the rest of verses revolve around what this line means to you.

Thanks for a great read.

Beautifully written. It is sad though, for some it will never happen.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats
