Love Poem: Simply Be

Simply Be

Although sometimes I’m senseless
I can sense your painful cries
Even though I suffer from some deafness
I can still hear your quiet silent screams
That no one else can cause of their deafened mind
As I read between your lines
Your story speaks silent volumes to me
I feel some of what you feel
And I see most of what you see
Seems as this is how it was always supposed to be
Our hearts beating as one
I’m there with you, you’re here with me
Yet miles separate us
The love we share in together for one another
Will just simply be
Now will it ever be more than what it is now?
Well I suppose we will have to just wait it out and see
Maybe we can then make sense of the senseless painful cries
That are still silenced to everyone else’s deaf ears
Hear what we are saying instead of the quiet screams
And just letting life pass us by
Perhaps one day I will get to look into your eyes
And from there read between those lines
With no words being spoken, listening to your stories speaking volumes to me
Always feeling some of what you feel
Seeing most of what you see
But for now still this is what is seems it’s supposed to be
Our hearts beating as one
Me being there with you, you being here with me
The miles still separate
But it’s in all so much more than just fate
The love we share in together for one another
Will still always and forevermore just simply be
