My Three Lives

I only wish to have three lives.
I’d marry you in one, a companionship created with the essence of our love.
The other lives…
I’ll be dreaming of living with you.
For you are untouchable like a deity, perhaps living across seas, in distant and foreign lands,
There is no physical contact,
And it ignites excitement within.
The pain of distance heightens the love.
Intoxicated by your thoughts I will dwell forever in the shelter of solitude.
Love flourishes through distance and desire,
And yearning brings us in touch with our most profound emotions.
With a smile on my face and content in my heart, I’ll always wonder if I will ever be able to find you.
