Again We Meet

You’re the only one who told me this,
When the time would be right
For us both to step into life.
But what shall make this different
From all the others.

Time will always torment us both,
Taking the love we could have had
And the friendship you deserve.
Never will I stop caring for this
Keeping it so close to my heart.

What a grace you have in your steps,
Making each movement great on its own—
These are the moments,
Which I have prayed for
To touch your heart
Your hand—
Thanking God I am alive
So each step is yours
And no one else’s.

And all I ask is for your love,
Nothing more—
Than knowing you
The woman I can see tonight.
