I Want To Tell You That I Do Love You Poem by Gert Strydom

I did not think about the implications of being away from you.
I constantly am lost in my severe longing of you,
With your green-brown eyes that full of life shine in my thoughts.

I do write sincere verses to you that in my ears sound lame,
feel powerless where destiny is now setting our lives.
I did not think about the implications of being away from you.

Where you are ill I try to comprehend the situation without me
and your humanity, your image, is constantly lingering with me,
with your green-brown eyes that full of life shine in my thoughts.

That this virus is deadly constantly becomes clearer
and I do not know how to take you and me out of all of this.
I did not think about the implications of being away from you.

The USA did conclude a trade-agreement with China,
that hundreds do infect thousands is clear in any language.
With your green-brown eyes that full of life shine in my thoughts

it's as if with great longing you are beaconing me
and I do want to tell you that I do love you, a thousand times.
I did not think about the implications of being away from you,
with your green-brown eyes that full of life shine in my thoughts.
