In my heart where the love for you is kept,
I need not repeatedly visit.
What has been captured remains to stay.
Even to drift away momentarily to reminisce the 'ifs'...
I have already discovered to be pointless.
Since in my heart where the love for you is kept,
There is not an 'if' to wish together we did not do.
To experience!
You and I had borrowed so much time,
From those tomorrows...
They would never come to end what has been done.
In my heart where the love for you is kept to keep, .
I need not repeatedly visit.
When every beat of my existence is yours to 'be' as is!
I know it as I awaken to feel blessed to get another breath.
And everything about our love has a permanence that connects.
Leaving those known that I have loved to keep that love alive,
Staying with me and felt inside to never be replaced.
There is no way I could live without that to acknowledge,
As a fact!
You and I had borrowed so much time,
From those tomorrows...
They would never come to end what has been done,
To do over again with wishes to spend more time together.
My existence is yours to 'be' as is!
