TO KNOW YOU

and be known by you.

TO KNOW YOU

I've given up on ideas of grandeur

They had only ever stemmed from my lack

I'm taking pleasure in the simple moments

The sun on my skin

The fresh air in my lungs

Hot coffee on my lips

And, you in my heart.

Gratitude

    Hoping the YOU stays in your heart and makes it sing Catherine. These days it is a toss up on whether or not love stays faithful. Good luck. Fingers xxx
