A Love Beyond Words
Love feels too small a word
To hold what I feel for you
In these passing days of life.
I miss you more than
This body can ever express,
More than words can ever carry.
My days drift through dutiesβ
Thoughts of my parents,
My dear son,
And everything in betweenβ¦
Yet somewhere, always,
You remain.
And when the evening finally settles,
After dinner, in quiet stillness,
I see my tired eyesβ
Dreams donβt come easy anymore.
Because my heart knows
It has been missing you all along.
Sometimes I askβ
Why am I away?
Why are you away?
Why are we not together?
And with those questions,
My eyes fillβ¦
And I break into silent tears.
So instead, I choose strengthβ
I ask about your day,
I share thoughts,
I stand beside you in every way I can.
Not to hide my pain,
But to protect your heart from it.
Because if you see me cry,
I know youβll hurt more,
And the distance between us
Will feel even heavier.
So I hold onβ¦
To love, to hope, to us.
I love youβ
More than these words can say,
More than this distance can change.
And I waitβ¦
For the day our dreams
Finally become our reality.
