My Platonic Lover
I never planned on meeting you
but there you are
sitting with a smile and not a clue
A hello started it all off
One moment led to another.
We became so close
No one would ever discover
The beginning of my platonic lover
You had someone, and so do I
What we both feel we cannot deny
You could feel the energy
Between you and me
But we keep this all inside
Physically, we do not touch.
A caressed word ignites a fire between us
Maybe one day and not in a dream
My platonic lover and I will be more than we seem
but there you are
sitting with a smile and not a clue
A hello started it all off
One moment led to another.
We became so close
No one would ever discover
The beginning of my platonic lover
You had someone, and so do I
What we both feel we cannot deny
You could feel the energy
Between you and me
But we keep this all inside
Physically, we do not touch.
A caressed word ignites a fire between us
Maybe one day and not in a dream
My platonic lover and I will be more than we seem
Author's Note
I was debating on putting an author note but this was inspired by Kenny Rodgers and Dolly Parton's relationship.

I loved them, and their song is so fire, and the complexity of a platonic lover was well played out.
Beautifully portrayed.

Things are platonic and then suddenly they're not. You have to wonder sometimes, what did I start and can I finish or should I finish ?
BIG LIKE the feels here ...

I love this and am in a similar position now. Platonic is tough when you feel more, but platonic is better than no relationship at all. Nice….

A vivid expression of a psychic connection. I like the use of what feels like a paradox (Platonic lover) to explore unique relationships.

Mother Nature is indeed a most beautiful creation, yet she can ba as crule in equal measure to her abundance of wonderment.
Two people can be irrevocably in love with each other, yet fate will play her dirty games, and Mother Nature will make clear her demands.

With all the games she plays, father time marches on, and before they know it, poof, one of them is gone.
Thank you, Dagger;))
