my dream…

is of you

my soul             remembers

but it can’t     find the words

it hopes              for a future

with you but     time passes

we touch briefly           but with

words    not sensations     and

consider ourselves so blessed

with       just       that           but

           what if what could be

    was like a rose       slowly

building that bud          petal

by petal creating layers and

        layers of a story which

when looked at from afar is

      breathtaking…and from 

closeup   unforgettable   so

do I dare

do you dare

time is the enemy

quickly now stealing

    what could be        so special

    so perfect      yet     of course

    there will be those rainy days

trickling slowly down but 

followed by colors of peace  of

companionship               where

a stone gathered from a beach

or a mountain     or where ever 

each journey takes us     and it

       is more beautiful

       holds more meaning

       more love and memories 

than a diamond or gold
