Again, a picture presented itself to me in my mind and I tried to translate it onto paper with my words.


Tonight My Love

Where are you tonight My Love?

I am here waiting for you,
desiring you, loving you.
In these quiet moments of solitude,
I find myself drawn to you,
dreaming of you, calling to you.
In the darkness I see only your face,
hear only your voice; your aroma fills
the air.
In the softness of the breeze,
I feel your touch against my skin
gentle as your last whisper of love
caressed the nape of my neck.
I shiver in delight and the night's
dew moistens my lips like your kiss.
I wrap my arms around myself thinking
of your warm embrace.
The moon is full and the first star
shoots across the sky.

And I know where you are tonight My Love.

You are in the wind.
You are in the dew.
You are the in darkness.
You are the in light.
You are

in

me,

My Love.

Everyone has already said what I was going to say - This was so buetiful, I saw it as a lover who lost their love through a death - distance that is forced apon a couple - forced apart through no wish or desire of their own.... left only with the lingering longing, the smell of them apon the pillow... a lover keeped forever within the heart although the arms can not physically embrace them... true love never dies .... everything on this planet does :( Thanks heaps for such an inspiring write....:)

Beautiful and emotive. I wish your beloved would be with you to kill your solitude. Love never dies and can't be separate as Zachary P. B. said. Thank you for sharing.

people never truly leave us.. through death or distance, or whatever separates, the memory of what we love them for remains in our hearts. i firmly believe in that. beauteous my friend.. as always.
