Why I Love You Now Poem by Ebone' Ingram

Your voice is music to my ears.
When I look at you, I have nothing to hide.
You come to my mind like tears to my eyes
And then you never leave.

Even in my happiest moments,
My heart longed for you.
I wept for you every night,
And I prayed you would return.

At twilight on my darkest days,
I'd look upon the moon,
Gaze upon that orb and wonder
If you missed me too.

Now, again, you have come to me,
And once again, I feel you
As your presence soothes me
And your soul finds mine.
