A Love Struck Lament: To One Far Away Poem by Simon Miller

Oh, my angel, if life was half as sweet
As the time I spend by your lovely side!
Life’s challenges I would willingly meet,
Made easier when you with me abide.
The love that you so freely give to me,
Is way more than I could ever deserve.
With you, my heart can finally be free.
So now in words, my love I do preserve.
I long for you, my darling, oh, my love,
Without you, I feel as if I’m not whole.
And my heart cries out as the Mourning Dove,
And so, to this end, I pour out my soul;
And unless God will come and condescend,
As long as I live, my love will not end.
