~ Together ~
We thought the dailiness of
our being together constantly would
dim the light and tarnish the glow
of our special love ~
It has not done that!
We are more comfortable with each other ~
Sharing our thoughts and activities
or just sitting quietly together,
yet aware and conscience
of the oneness, the completeness ~
It seems that ~
We have been together from the beginning of time
We are one in peace ~
