The Love Affair

Upon my arrival, you didn’t know this but I needed you

You took my hand into yours; you squeezed it as if to say,

“Welcome and I’m glad you’re here”

You opened your arms and embraced me with a hug, a sweet kiss to the forehead and then the cheek

As we embraced, I felt your rapid heart beat

For this moment we are beyond close, it’s as though we are one

Today is the beginning of a great love affair

Time stands still and we are living in this moment

As the days slowly come and go, minutes, hours and now this day has moved into the next

Where has the time gone

Just like I arrived, so soon, now it is time for us to part ways

We shall adjourn back to our individual realities

This moment is ours to keep

and

Forever in our memories it shall remain  

Until the day you open your arms to comfort me again, you will stay on my mind and I will keep you in my dreams and close to my heart…...
