Mo Ghràidh – My Love

It feels so odd to be half a world away from you

Untouchable and intangible — AYE!

But alive once more in my dreams are Him and I

I miss the warmth of your brown eyes. The kind warmth that emanates.

I miss your smile. Infectious — making impossible to contain my own.

I miss the sound of your voice. Sweet, calm, reassuring.

The comfort from you saying: “Everything’s going to be okay.”

Your absence has made my heart grow fonder

You keep telling me I’m stronger

Your absence has made me aware

Of a surprising revelation, way over here

Your patience you give, above all, sir — I deserve not

But for our love, tis one for the ages to preserve

Ours — When two hearts combine

They listen to the each others whispers

Whispers lead to plans, plans lead to our innermost souls

When our souls speak

Pray tell, mo ghràidh, What do our souls say?

We will endure and we are ever so sure, says I!

I readily await your reply, my dearest mo ghràidh!

With All the Love I Possess,

Your Lorene
