Héloïse And Abelard Poem by Gert Strydom

Even when we have to part,
it brings us still nearer to each other.
Nothing can keep me away from you
and nothing separates true love.

I live from the letters that I receive from you
and if I sometimes feel confused
I know even when we have to part,
that it brings us nearer to each other.

The feelings between you and me
claims no big gesture
and every thing is accomplished and has been settled
and my love and joy is always you,
even when we have to part.
