Still Here

Nandawula Regine Kabali-Kagwa

 

 

My eyes are not there, to look at yours
To have a conversation and make your orbs smile
But the distance that you see
Is how far my heart goes fonder... For miles

My lips are not there, to share a dance with yours
To waltz to the music of how we feel
But as long as our music still plays
My heart will always two-step to your heart beat

My hands are not there, to elevate the hairs on your skin
To swell those goosebumps
But as long as I'm still here
My presence remains through my absence, from our fire within

I am not there, but I'm here within the chambers of your soul
Safely tucked in your linen of romance
Always

      Thank you so much for reading 😊🤗. This piece reminds me of the times where you're so far from your partner and words of affirmation being so comforting.

      simply beautiful! dear Poet
      (there is a love, with connectivity
      so intertwined
      and magnetic chemistry
      so innately, transparent
      that, be it side-by-side
      or miles - apart
      each partner, need only
      reach for that thread
      in their heart
      to pull on that pool of unwavering
      affection, loyalty and passion
      and let the other partner, feel
      their yearning..
      I know these words to be true
      for I've been blessed to experience
      such a love, myself
      and even now, years - apart
      wherever she may be, I know
      on certain nights
      she thinks of me, as I feel her
      pull, at that thread neither of us
      dare, cut
      and so I willingly, give-in to reverie's
      breeze, smiling
      when recalling
      knowing, she's wishing me well
      and I, in turn
      still, wish her all the best in life..)
      'My lips are not there, to share a dance with yours
      To waltz to the music of how we feel
      But as long as our music still plays
      My heart will always two-step to your heart beat'
      Amen!
