I am to you spirit, heart and soul.
I can feel your pain, disillusionment, heartache
and sorrow.
If only I could burn away
the midnight mist and bring a clarity
of calm peaceful happiness
to your heart.
If only for a moment I could bring a veil
of forgetfulness
to your troubled thoughts.
If only I could make the burdens you carry
fall from your aching shoulders
as Autumn leaves shed the ties to their branches.
If only I could make up for the times
you have been let down
and raise you to the heights that Heaven
has not attained.
If only early in the morning and in the dead of night
you could reach out and feel the strength
of my support, my love and devotion.
If only the ties that bind us
could be so tight.
If only I could whisper in your ear
words that would change the dim dawn
into a bright and sunny day.
If only I could read your mind
to know what to do and what to say.
If only I could give something back for
all that you give.
I give you all that I can but I fear it is not enough.
There are times when my heart
feels ripped from my chest and my
tears flow as rivers filling a salty sea.
Yet when I am with you
you take my hand
and rainbows fill my vision.
Your love takes me from the dark chill
of the evening to the warmth of
a summer's dawn.
I have loved you from the beginning
and will to the end.
Time has not blunted what I felt on
first sight of you.
Time only reinforces
what is and will remain,
love eternal, always and forever.

What wonderful lines sets the sincerity
The love and sincerity
The care and yearnings
The suffering of a lover is felt
Well crafted dear poet
Thank you for your kind comments.
I must agree with Spill on this one. It's a wonderful, heartfelt read. I felt the protagonist's pain in not being able to return what they've been given. A wonderful write and read. Thanks for posting.
Thanks. Much appreciated. Thoughts come from the mind, feelings from the heart.
You good sir have just inspired something. Thanks again!
Wonderful loving words James, I am sure that love will gone on forever.
