seeing you there
sitting right across from me
looking into your eyes
and watching you
watching me
i see the part of me
that is missing
and i reach out to touch you
and i touch not your face
but the screen between us
that allows not for embrace
but only one dimensional viewing
for in reality, it is 5am there across the sea
and for me, it is a midnight date
i wait up late to see you
to be with you
to watch you watching me
watching you
across thousands of miles of sea
but it is true for you and me
that love is, simply is, always is
there
within us
for one another
and we share
our love with words
that can never express
the fullness
the enormity
the helplessness of this longing
and the completeness of the belonging
of you and me eternally together
it's more than physical
it's more than spiritual
it is the wholeness of life
the rarity of the obtainable
unexplainable
magnificent
majestic
magnetic
infectious
affection
of

Pure

Love
