Every moment that we are together,
I am learning something,
and that knowledge becomes a permanent part of me.
Though my feelings will be different a year from now,
or ten years from now, part of the difference is you.
Because of you, I am a different person,
and the person I will grow to become
will have gotten there partly because of you.
If you were not in my life right now,
I could not be who I am right now,
nor would I be growing in exactly the same way.
I don't worry about our future together,
sine we have already touched each other
and affected each other's lives on so many levels
that we can never be totally removed from one another.
A part of me will always be with you,
and a part of you will always be with me.
That much is certain, no matter what else happens.
p.s. I am not sure if Larry S. Chengges has written this poem!
