Distant Love

I have not seen you,

Nor heard your soothing voice,

Or felt your soft, gentle touch.

I have not smelled your sweet fragrence,

Nor tasted anything,

When we kiss.

And yet,

I love you.

Strong and confident, you stand up for me.

You know me better than anyone else.

And You know how I feel...

Even before I know myself.

We are far away, and so close.

My deep love cannot be expressed... with meer words.

Though we have not have been together long, or ever truly met,

I still love you.

For you are my true love,

We are the perfect couple.

Where I am weak,

You are stong.

When I know you're there, I feel my heart pound.

I blush, and butterflies flutter within me.

My heart skips a beat...

I know I love you.

My love is not of lust,

But of my deep affection for you.

You mean so much to me,

So much I cannot express.

There isn't a moment that passes,

Where I do not think of you.

You're always on my mind...

I always love you.

How I long to be in yours arms,

To feel you touch,

To be close to you,

And have our lips meet...

With each beat of my heart,

And whenever you're gone,

I feel my heart grow ever fonder,

I love you even more.

So even though  I have not seen you,

Nor heard your soothing voice,

Or felt your soft, gentle touch...

And though I have not smelled your sweet fragrence,

Nor tasted anything,

When we kiss...

For that,

I love you.
