Your return is always sweet,
bliss as our loving lips meet.
Journey’s end is ecstasy wild,
I was like a motherless child.

You favour me with love and grace,
I love your humours, adore your face,
I feel so safe when I'm with you,
Now/Then - whole night’s through.

You comfort me when I'm down,
Keep me afloat lest I drown,
You sense I'm low before I do,
raising me up to pull me through.

Come the times you have to go,
My heart feels heavy, weary so,
I cling to you, restrain my tears,
kissed away - you erase my fears.

When passing days mark the week,
your absence jars, prospect’s bleak.
The wait for you seems endless times,
I endure it all by penning rhymes.

I yearn for when we next entwine,
To know again that I am thine,
I vow to make it permanent,
An eternal bond by covenant.

But until then, this patient wait,
must be endured – it is our Fate,
Soon forever we will be as One,
I promise this, as unto You I run.
