This time apart reveals to me
your presence to me is real.
I relish our time together
but your absence is something I feel.

You're out of touch in a normal way,
a void in time exists.
A very present distinction
from being in your midst.

This time apart is valuable to me
A proving of worth in my mind
My eyes don't see you in light,
our invisible thread still binds.

This time apart grows our bond
and grows our love too.
In the heart absence makes fonder,
with loving thoughts of you.

Two people choose to be together.
Our desire for the other is shown
I choose you now and forever.
The truest love I've ever known.
