If only I could know <br />What keeps a heart alive, <br />Or plant a seed to grow <br />The food to feed a soul, <br />Bring comfort to Spring’s foal <br />And help it to survive. <br /> <br />If only I could touch <br />What gives your cheek its flame, <br />Or love without a crutch <br />That time can cause to end, <br />But let this not offend… <br />For stillness speaks your name.<br /><br />Brian Johnston<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/separation-61/
