a very sweet poem

Someday...

Our ships are moored
in opposite seas;
destiny brought us together
but keeps us apart.
We just can't be--
you and me.
There are a million
miles between us.
Obligations hold us at bay.
We search in the dark
for each other,
but so many boundaries
block the way.
Yet I love you no less
than if you were here.
And I promise that my
affection will not grow weary.
I'll take you with me
all of my days,
with all the love
a heart can carry.
And I'll hope with
a smile and heavy tears
that the same thing
that keeps us apart,
will bring us together
in the coming years.
I have faith that
someday we'll be--
you and me.
