A BREATH IN TIME

Good morning

Poetry day today and it's a short and sweet post. I'm currently in the throes of a final collaboration of a book and am happily engrossed in the process. This is one of the poems which lightly touches on requited love.

What I’ve tried to do is to capture the essence of requited love with its intimacy and interplay of affection; that deep, mutual connection which feels both eternal and fragile. The tone is soft, romantic and wistfully reflective. It’s the unassuming joy of knowing a heart is mirrored in another’s, that each touch and glance is a promise returned, all lingering in moments that time holds close yet stretches slowly into life itself.

 

A BREATH IN TIME

I’m so blessed to be with you
As we live our lives together
To know that I am yours
To know that you are mine
Separated only by a breath in time

May we ever be together
May we ever be complete
For how long
Only time knows
And how slowly time goes

I’m so blessed to know your touch
My lips on yours
Yours on mine
Suspended longing
Moments in time

May we ever be together
May we ever be complete
For how long
Only time knows
And how slowly time goes
