Embracing
silently she writes pouring her heart out to him.
confessing to him how much importance he is to her.
how she longs to hold him tight in an embrace
that would last an eternity. how she shivers from
excitment just at the thought of his lips upon
hers.
every day that drifts by seems to take, what
seems like, forever to pass. nights are long, filled with dreams
that are of no help to her her worrisome thoughts.
days seem empty without him by her side to
keep her smiling and laughing.
unexpected tears fall from her eyes, blotting the
ink upon the paper. she tries to stop them, but
the more she tries the harder they fall. she
cries from missing him, wondering if he feels
the same way. she wishes he could hold her
tight to tell her not to worry, that they'd be
all right.
but try as she might to stop the ache
inside of her it doesn't go away. it fades
every now and then but comes back stronger and
more vibrant then before. the ache for him
seems to drain her emotionally. making her long
for him to be in her embrace.
although the ache from him is tearing her up
she still holds on tight. hoping he's holding
on just as tight.
