To hope
to dream
to Love
these are the things which
you inspire in me.
Like a gazelle
wild in its freedom,
you run through the
open meadow of my heart.

To feel
to care
to wish
upon a thousand stars
above you in the beautiful
midnight blue of His sky;
I wish you could try, just try
to open the door to your dreams...
Once again, trust a friend,
to truly be there in your need.

To sigh
to be
to know
that in every fibre of
this soul lies a separate
heartbeat created especially
and with tenderness
just for you.
There is nothing you need do,
just know that you are loved...
and just be; adrift in this sea
of calm and of peace.
