A poem for you
I have to work this Easter April Fools, but I found my mind drifting to a longing I couldn't describe other than through poetry. If you're reading this, it's for you. (P.S. I'm aware of the tense change and I don't care)

Across the swirling briny pool,
Ever did I look for you,
Shroud of mist cloaked yearning too,
On the shores of Esmerelda
Lost at once, we found a calm,
Having none, but feigning all,
Fearing that which only was
Suggested to be true
Through the dun of promised night,
I heard your distant call.
Had we joined in dreaming flight
On the shores of Esmerelda?
Only time, my teacher true,
Only sure, I am with you,
Only can our course we right
If conscience will we use
So I resign to search and wait,
Where I first stood tall,
Hoping we will meet one day,
On the shores of Esmerelda
