"You Are Still Here..."

In the deepest part of my core

At the finest level of my being

You are still here with me

Ingrained within my essence

In the visions within my minds eye

I see you looking at me

In the soft tender silences of the early morning

You embrace my soul

Talking and whispering to me gently

We laugh and we cry with each other

All in a place beyond words

We touch each other so reverently

Stealing all of the moments back that we've lost

All upon a level beyond any human touch

We share moments in a sacred place

Where angels dwell forevermore and time stands still

I bask within your warm radiance

Captivating the light

Here and now...

And during the moments in between, we are still together

Bonded with an everlasting promise and eternal love

An eagerness pursues me

Convictions barely sustain me

I miss you horribly, with a fierce intensity

I long for you with all of the remaining life I have contained within my being

I cry, alone, for you

Here, among the world of the living

In a place we call reality...
