To D...from A.....

The biting cold nips at our fingertips,
While the snow crunches beneath our feet.

We skip merrily down the walkway,
Like children on their way to school.

We smile at each other tentatively, and then more broadly.
We don’t feel the cold, as we warm each other, arm in arm.

We race to the next block, unsure of which direction to go,
Uncaring of where our steps take us, as long as we are together.

Laughter follows us where ever we go,
And our smiles are contagious to those who meet us.

The dinner hour comes and goes,
We only notice each other.

We are one. We are each the half of the other,
And love will find a way.

We haven’t traveled so far, to turn back now.
It is only our love and our passion that can determine that path.

Each night, we go to sleep, holding each other close,
Fearing, that when the light comes, the other will be gone.

Every day is a treasure, and only when the world is ready,Will we be able to walk among the mortals, and entrust them with our secret.
