Just when i settle in,
close my eyes to be ready for this gentle night,
what haunts me most at day,
shows feature behind these closed eyes.
And only now,
at this late hour,
when i know you are fast asleep,
can i admit aloud how much i love you,
truly and madly.
It is 1:40,
for two heart wrentching hours,
i have thought of only you,
because only you are in my heart.
It is at this time when i know,
deep down to my core,
i will always love you,
always need you.
But yet,
you are still 60 miles away,
and you are still engaged to her.

How the night brings us closer to ourselves..
The silence brings the heart to the surface.
This is so honest and just a very sweet piece from your soul.
Why does love have to be so sad?
So complicated?
The longing that your work portrays is done in a mystical form...under the very same sky your love sleeps beneath.
A heart beats in the night for one is may miles and many circumstances away.
Its a long way from here to there with the distance messured by tear drops.
Beautiful love poem indeed.
Stay near gypsy,
LOWELL.
