Realizing Love Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Listening to your voice, accent falling into my mind,
tempting desires to rise higher with every word spoken.

Laughter, raucous and enticing, enlivening spirits,
making me come alive once again within.

Secluded for so long in a darkened desert, nowhere to
roam, finding light when in your spiritual presence
across the miles.

Realizing the love between us is silently growing,
wanting to be together in each other's arms for an
eternity.

Never having to part our loving embraces here on earth,
holding hands in final moments of life, dying together,
not wanting to be without the other.

Flowing into heaven, side by side, life never keeping us
apart again.
