I love you <br /> but you're not here. <br />You love me <br /> I'm not there. <br />If you were here <br /> I'd give you a warm embrace. <br />If I was there <br /> you'd kiss my face. <br />At night I look in the sky above <br />See your face and know its love. <br />Your name is music to my ear <br />Though your touch is not near. <br /> <br /> (1982)<br /><br />Rosemary Monahan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/faraway-lovers/
