Your World and Mine

What is yours for the world

Has become mine in spirit

For though you seem surrounded by it

You are often swept away

In the cacophony of its presence

For me it is a world of serenity

Of peace and joy that can be lived and relived

Through the memories that I cherish

And can bring to mind whenever I please

I know you adore your world

But I love mine too

For yours is built in time and space

While mine lies deep within the mind and soul

And while the one passes by

Luring you and leaving you weeping  

At its passing away

The other is eternal

Offering companionship                  

 That neither time nor change

Can ever destroy
