Love withstands the distance,
and the grief of separation,
that loss of flesh and smell
and touch and taste of you,
of all you were and might
have been, of all you are
and we might dream, of all
that life delivered, then
denied and took away so
suddenly, determinedly,
so painfully and cruelly,
and yet, you were here, we
did meet, we did touch,
we did love and we do
still love and it is that love
which can never be removed,
for love, even if it exists
for just a second, will then
last forever, and forever.
