Humming A Few Bars...

Towards the sky, my eyes lift

Into the empty blue

I remember your scented skin

I remember you

I see your smile from my warm embrace

While the air was cold

I listened as your voice sung songs

I listened to stories told

I feel your lips upon my slumbering skin 

Thick with love and dreams

I know what we want to share

I know what all this means

Coming again not soon enough

Your hand I long to feel

The presence of my love afar

The presence that makes it real

And yet once more, I turn to see 

A smiling, loving face

Again my heart is filled with joy

Again we do embrace

I missed you so while I was elated

My heart turned round and round

Wanting you with empty arms

Wanting you in tears I drowned

Two loves upon a leaping heart

One missed as one returns

Reveals the ebb and flow of us

Reveals what my heart learns

Day by day love marches on

Into the unknown start

Understanding more each passing day

Understanding the love in our heart

Another goodbye, another hello, and another time for reflection.  It's not easy, my friends.  It's far more difficult than one could imagine, but it is worth all the effort to be allowed to love these women...to be allowed that incredible gift.  

Such wonders exist in the depths of one's heart. Such amazing places.  I cannot express enough how perfectly loved my heart is, and how painful it can be to miss each love in turn. Easier to pick one, you might say.  I counter that the pain is worth it if the reward is the love of amazing, powerful, independent, and beautiful women the likes of which I challenge anyone to equal. These hearts are jewels, treasures each. They deserve to be heralded with trumpets and angels singing their names aloud. Such beauty and grace in each, such incredible tenderness, compassion, and understanding.  These are women worthy of gifts untold. These are women brave enough to withstand the doubt of the undiscovered, and bold enough to blaze a path unseen by so many.  

I love you both so very much.  

There is more to this song... I just need to find the right melody.
