Where Lovers Go!

 

Where, is the place where lovers go,

When, in this world--they cannot show-

What lies behind the eyes, and, greets the soul?

Where , is the place where lovers go,

When, time and space have told them, no!

 

Listen, for each "beating heart,"

As we pass by, and strike a spark-

Emotions, trapped, within each one,

And, still--they burn, when day is done.

 

Where can we meet, with these two hearts,

That time and space, have kept apart?

When we yearn for that embrace-

The two of us, to interlace?

 

Our minds can hold the memories,

Of stolen moments, and fantasies,

Until that time, our souls do meet-

Where, time ,and space, do not deplete.

 

I long for "ever-after years,"

As, "face to face"--we meet with tears!!

So, wait for me, my Dear--Sweet-One--

For, soon, I'll come, with the setting sun.
