My thoughts are with you tonight
although, we are miles apart.
The distance only embeds my love
for you deep within my lonely heart.
To understand this feeling,
that I cannot ask you to do.
However, please have
compassion for me
and this love I have for you.
My sadness is for not being
near enough to prove this is real.
Yet a feeling of happiness
for knowing that one day
I will get to share with you
the tenderness I feel.
As I lay here my body aches
for your nearness.
I long for the sound of your
voice and the touch
of your skin next to mine.
Just to see your face
and to feel your warm embrace
would take away
all that time has given.
And make this life of mine
worth living
again.
