I’ve known her for years
And yet I’m still learning about her

We have grown close this year
And yet she is still so out of reach

My dreams are filled with our encounters
And yet I continue to awaken alone

We hug and touch and occasionally kiss
And yet we never quite go further

We both profess our eternal love for one another
And yet we remain involved with others

I can’t imagine living life without her
And yet I’m living life without her
