Bon Voyage Poem by val legend

BON VOYAGE

You said, 'i will never leave your side'
'we will never part'
Life happened
Now you have to leave for a while...
Low or high
Far or nigh
You are always in my heart
Forever to stay...
If every line I write would make you miss me
Then I would write you a thousand poems
To tell you how much I love you
And how much I miss and need you...

We would call and text,
send voice notes and pictures,
laugh over the phone...
But empty my arms will remain
Till you fill it again...
Aching my heart will be
Till you soothe it again...
Dry my lips will be
Till you come back
And flood it with kisses...


Everyday is the number of days I will miss you
Every second is the number of time my heart will beat for you
Always is the measure of time I will love you
Every hour I will pray for your return
Forever is the length of time I will wait
For you to come back to me...

This isn't goodbye
Even as I watch you leave
This isn't farewell
Even as tears fill my eyes...
I will wait right here
Till I hold you in my arms again
'Cause I know you will come back to me
'Cause I know our love will never end...
My Love, Bon Voyage...
