There Is Something Almost Holy Clinging To Your Humanity Poem by Gert Strydom

I adore you without any fear,
try to day after day only to live for you,
as you are a part of my thoughts and my flesh,

for me like an angel given by God
and from a deadly virus the threat is great
but now we have got a life that is turned upside-down,

where I long for things to be as they was
and the lock-down and limitations has become a way of life.
I adore you without any fear,

and everywhere that I go there is of the pestilence acute distress,
the virus hangs in the air and comes into your blood
and from a deadly virus the threat is great

As a woman you are in my heart, soul and spirit
and for your happiness I do strive,
as you are a part of my thoughts and my flesh.

To your mere womanhood there is a hot glow
and in my thoughts are every word and your laughter.
The virus hangs in the air and comes into your blood

and thousands die and many more are healed,
where daily a person dares into life.
I adore you without any fear,

where locked-down I wait on the end of the virus,
where still my life is touched by your love
and in my thoughts are every word and your laughter.

My heart beats wildly when I read your remarks,
there is something almost holy clinging to your humanity,
as you are a part of my thoughts and my flesh,

the one with whom I want to awake in the morning,
the one who I love without any boundaries,
where still my life is touched by your love

and away from you I feel totally lost,
and my life is without meaning when I experience things without you.
I adore you without any fear,
as you are a part of my thoughts and my flesh,

the one in all of my dreams and wishes,
for me like an angel given by God,
the one who I love without any boundaries
but now we have got a life that is turned upside-down.
