All the pieces lie where they fell, yours and
mine. I want to line those pieces up
and keep the promises I made.
We need to start our journey.
And who knows? That may not
be so hard. Maybe
it’s already
begun. But
if not,
then
we
will go
together.
And don’t forget,
wherever you go,
I am always with you,
and I am thinking of you,
wherever you are. Because we
were once waiting for our birth by sleep,
when the world was like watching a dream that
we couldn’t wake up from. That scattered dream
was like a far off memory of
who we were. And in you and I,
there was a new land. But we
departed from that land,
and we started a
whole new journey
with friendship
to guide
us.
And
now I
step forward
to realize
this: our hearts have touched.
And the heart may be weak,
and sometimes it may give in,
but there’s a light that won’t go out.
And the darkness will not touch my heart
because of you, your light in the darkness.
You’ll be in my heart, and when the time comes
when we must go our separate ways,
our hearts will still be connected.
Whatever happens, we will
always be together
because of the bond
you and I have
always had
and will
share.
So this is kind of long, but it's an extended version of a poem that was published somewhere else. It was written about a year ago, but it's still one of my favorites.
