Never
Met.
I know I am a realist,
And that I’ll never know,
Until we meet each other,
Whether it’s yes or no.
I know I’m also gracious,
And you’re the same way too,
Our magic’s an enigma,
Came right out of the blue.
I know there is no other,
I can only be myself,
That is my inheritance,
And my inane wealth.
Whatever’s bound to happen,
On a road paved in gold,
The freedom of expression,
Has been both brave and bold.
I hope the dance of romance,
And love that we both feel,
Can cast past expectations,
And gently reveal.
The inner self and essence,
The place where nature dwells,
A piece of life and living,
And beatific spells.
You have my deep assurance,
I will graciously depart,
If there’s no attraction,
Yet deep within my heart.
The journey has been magic,
I’ve learnt a million miles,
About the joy of giving,
So many heartfelt smiles.
