Though  these words  may never
find you, I  hope you knew I was
thinking of you today...

How is it that you are always in
my  thoughts, even  when  I  am
not thinking.

Love  is the most beautiful of
dreams  and  the  worst  of
nightmares.

Your  smile  and  your laughter
and  those  baby  blues  lit  my
whole world.

I choose to love you from a distance...
for distance will shield me from pain.

There is an ocean of silence between
us...and I am drowning in it.

You were both everything I could
ever want... and nothing I could ever have.

A true love story never ends.                                         Jon York   2023
