Day After Today
Loving you is easy
like water winding gently
across a prairie ridge,
the most wonderful thing I’ve ever done,
or will ever do again.
You brought a profound peace
to my life; a tenderness I cherish
each time we were together.
Even while half-a-world separates us,
this day leads to the next,
that leads to the one after that,
and in a future not measured by time,
we find ways to be together.
It won’t be easy,
lasting love never is.
There’ll be struggles
and challenges,
but love is just as much about
commitment as it is about
tenderness and romance.
I’m as committed to you,
as the day we’re forever together.
Background poem for the novel, “The Dangling Conversation.” Kyle’s last pitch to Nadia….or close to last pitch.
