A Divine Spirit Is In The Air Poem by Adryan Barnathan

I never imagined
what a strong
influence you could have
over my entire life,
but it came thru us
and it was big.

How a few months
swept us away;
completely off the planet.

Between us
were hidden forces
that drew us together....

Such a force of recognition,
as if we knew one another
from another lifetime-
as if I had waited
to be born, just for you.

How natural it was -
so whole, so complete,
so safe, so totally loved.
How could I discredit
this mysterious gift?

This is why I protect
what was our gift in this life.

Now I have to let you go,
and I know what fate comes
with letting you go completely.
I will never come close to you
or hear from you ever again
and that, saddens me to the bone.

Time will eventually
take you away from me completely...
I can feel you forgetting me
as I write this
like a half remembered dream
upon rising,
eventually, I will be forgotten.

This thought,
that we will never be a part
of one another’s lives again
is heart wrenching.
So for now, I spend my days in tears.
This will pass, eventually.

... but my heart, will never forget.....
(my heart will never forget You) .
