Questions for the Night

What if you could hear my heart
Beating across the galaxies?
What if you could count each tear
In the oceans I've wept in longing for you?
What if there were words enough
To tell how my soul strives for you daily?
What if you could measure how constantly
I ache for your embrace?
How much longer must bride and bridegroom
Be kept apart by burdensome time?
How many questions more until I make my point?
How much longer can I burn this rhyme...
