I thought of you this morning, as I do every morning.
I hope you slept well.
Actually, I hope you slept at all.
Hugs you either way, then kisses you softly and sighs.

It's been a while since I’ve wanted or longed for,
No, since I’ve needed anything or anyone beyond what I have, but here you are.
Now I dream in fairytales and myths.
And I can no longer picture my world without you.

And, yes, I know we are both committed to another,
But also to each other in ways neither one of us can comprehend
And when my head finds the pillow beside him
And you lie in her arms, we both smile.

We aren’t meant to live in each other’s worlds.
But we exist in each other’s hearts all the same.
Is this love? Is it magic?
Is it possible to tell the difference?

Ah, there we go…
A message, not made of anything tangible,
Yet real, just the same.

When you describe the way you touch me,
I feel your fingertips glide across my body.
And when you kiss what you have touched, because you must,
It’s as if the world stands still for a moment.

Just long enough to take my breath away.

Shhh, I must return to my slumber now,
Just as surely as your day is beginning.

Our love swirls around the universe until I feel your lips sear my skin,
And we have become one for a split second.
In that moment, suspended between longing and reality,
I realize how fate has woven invisible threads between our souls.

And we smile because we know…

Magic exists.
