Falling in Love With You

©2023 by Abbie Johnson Taylor

After a two-year long-distance relationship,

shocked to discover you wanted more than friendship

and unsure if I wanted the same,

I didn’t rush in.

But after a while, I took your hand, stayed with you.

Like a river flowing to an ocean, we were meant to be together.

All too soon, you left this world,

your river running dry.

But my love is as endless as the tide.
