While The Days Do Run On Poem by Gert Strydom

While the days do run on
at times there is a kind of hesitation,
a familiarity that you have been here
and outside it’s raining
and the nights are dark and silent
when dreams come as they will.

Together with you
I want to discover the whole world,
constantly I want to learn to know you better,
want to go for moments deeper into moments,
I want to hold you tenderly
until the night perishes in the morning,
during the bright day I want to be with you
and I want to read all of the unsaid things in your eyes.
