As he cupped my tear stained face in his strong hands,
He ran his finger along my slightly parted lips.

On drawing me as close as he possibly could to his warm bare heaving chest,
My heart almost missed a vital beat.

While he tenderly tipped his finger under my chin
He gazed lovingly into my soulful misted eyes.

As the precious words written below fell from his angelic lips;

“I love you.”  He softly whispered

“I've always loved you.”

“Please come back to me.  After all this time apart, I now know I can never live without you.”

“Yes” was the only word I could manage to breathe.
