Love

Once, there was love
It was real as it can be
It was pure as it might be

Time went by
the love was still there
remain strong and intact
beautiful and passionate

Distance came in between,
the love was still there,
as real as it was
as pure as it used to be
as strong as it should be
as intact as the first time
as beautiful as it could be
as passionate as before

but this time, it is only mine
yours has gone, defeated by the distance

p.s. I'll cherish the old you in my heart.
