the difference between now andforever
are the moments that fill the spaces
that lie in between the gasps
that take our breath away
and the quiet thoughts
that nurture us
from one soul to another
are no longer silent
if only i could find the words
that could ever tell you
the feelings that arise
between this moment and eternity
filled with the entirety of you
then my secrets would no longer hold
the meaning or the fear
of a thousand restless thoughts
as we struggle with the reality
of all that has been given
in kindness and love
in this our sacred trust
our words they do ring clear
echoing the love we hold so close
smothering each breath
of our worried hearts...
