Love Poem: Reaching Out

Reaching Out

When I am gone, 
    Hold up your hands.

Close your eyes,
     And remember me,
          Remember us,
                 See us as children,
                      Together.

Learning from each other,
      Laughing together,
            Languishing in the love
                  That has brought us into this life…
                       Together.

And when you do,
        You will feel me….
            Through the warmth that fills your hands,
                  Through my life that courses through your body,
                       Through the memories of love that flash through your brain.

I have felt it.
       You will, too.

          You need only to open your heart
                   And extend 
                           your hands out to me.

                                    I will be waiting…..
                                          Just to reach back
                                                  To you.
