You
may not read
the words
I write for you.....

NOR
SEE THE DREAMS
YOUR THOUGHTS
CONJURE UP
IN MY EYES.....

You
may not
even
speak to me
for ages....
nor
fluster me with
your silences

the words
the thoughts
the memories...
the dreams..
are evanescent...
YOU ARE NOT...

And so

when I hold you in my arms
look into your eyes...
be sure
it is not for today
or tomorrow..
or few years hence

but
for a life
that shall merge
into eternity...
