There Is Magic In Your Nearness Poem by Gert Strydom

There’s magic in your nearness
and the pleasure
of being with you
changes my world

You bring the best out of me
and let me perceive things
in a another way
and you
make me experience new things
and experiences.

With you the world
lies open before me
and it’s exceptional
to laugh with you
and to have you
as a part of each lovely day.

When you are with me
time rushes past,
while I get more and more
of your humanity
like the breath of life
to quench my soul.
