LINES OF THOUGHT © 2016
I don't know, I don't know,
My love, how far we will get,
The strokes we take today, strong and firm,
May not withstand the inevitable fatigue,
The cramps that time, slowly, brings to us.
Naturally, in the middle of the journey,
We will have to stop, regain our strength,
Accept the pause that life offers us,
To later, perhaps, resume at another pace,
Maybe softer, more aware.
But the most important thing, will be to keep stroking,
Even when the body begs for rest.
Infinity awaits, love, for us, side by side,
Because without you, life loses its melody,
Loses its echo, its deepest meaning.
And so, serenely, love will be the song,
That plays from both sides of our hearts.
Regardless of time, strength, or the path,
We will keep swimming, together, towards infinity.
