Love Poem: Arm In Arm

Arm In Arm

I’m looking for equilibrium, between my head and my heart
Let my vision clear before my desires to see you burst
In my brief visit home, I want less time apart from the start
Filling up my days means spending time with you first

Our meetings together to be savored and tasted in full
No time to dawdle as I’d rather you be with me near
My longing to see your pretty face is loves’ gentle pull
Get to know your heart as well as how dear you appear

You gaze back at me, a bit of melancholy in your gay charm
Talking and laughing together like in all your childhood years
It’s so good to know we can still fit happily arm in arm
And we’re healing from all our fears and angry tears

These little bits fill my heart, so much to share before good-byes
Our precious time together, too soon away it flies
