Stranded Love Poem by Seli SusuAtiase

I thank God for you...
for the meaning and understanding you bring into my world
you touch my heart in so many ways
and continue to touch my life in ways you can never imagin
I dont ask much of you and neither do you
but the beat of our hearts sends out a lifelong commitment
of loves won, hearts stranded, messages unspoken
tender moments that we wish to rekindle
warm steamy nights, soft music to touch our soul
I realise I dont have to see you to feel whats inside
the power of the mind and the heart
has a great way of talking.

Alas to reality!
The bustle of the world makes us try to catch up with it
family to tend to, loved ones to pay attention to
kids who keep you on your toes all day
jobs to do to keep the world going around

Then comes our moments!
when all is still and you find yourself a little time
that me time becomes our time when some dreams form
the light will never die from our eyes
and the day does end eventually with the me time
time for us to bring to life what cannot be lost between us.
