Tomorrow by now you will go away,

Today is all there is for us to embrace.

Knowing that you may never return again,

We make the most of what there is today.

Driving in through the iron gates,

A beautiful garden in front, we gaze.

Bluebells swaying on either side.

The humming bird chirping to my right.

Waiting in the car for you to check us in,

My heart in my mouth I sadly think.

A great job opportunity though it is,

Can our love survive this long distance stint?

The Daisies, Tulips, Carnations, all

Are mute spectators to my aching heart.

How do I just let you go away?

Why can’t we together, forever stay?

Quietly we sit by the fire place.

My grieving heart why can’t it just wait?

Let me enjoy the warmth of your embrace

Tomorrow is as yet far away.

My heart knows you will find someone new.

Long distant love is probably just not true.

In your absence I too may find someone new,

Is this the kind of love we are married to ?
