Are you truly a million miles away,
when you are right here in my heart?
On this lonely path together
but so many miles apart
Each morning you rise with the sun
and greet me each with each and every day
Each night I become the moon to say Buona Notte e dormi bene
and I always welcome the vampires and the bats
***
Two hearts truly together forever now
but how?
Both too bruised and beaten by life to believe this is real or safe
Two hearts that beat to the rhythm of a different drum
Two nonconformist out of necessity
Music icons saving both of us
***
Two precious people
that this world tried to throw away
We are not trash to each other
This world was not made for us
we often say “same”
So we made it work for us
And then found each other!
***
Was it serendipity or miracle?
Who knows, you say
Who knows….
***
Will I ever hold your hand?
You say we do not know the future
My heart aches but it is not allowed to break
on this precious day, Valentine’s Day
I hold your heart
only because you let me
***
We are doing the best we can
Two broken!
Too broken!
But more put together than most
Truly, two precious rare gems!
A million miles away
***
Happy Valentine’s Day, my beloved friend.
Ti Voglio Bene.
