Love Poem: Karim

Karim

My heart swells with anticipation
every time I think of you;
it's overpowering, overwhelming, 
I wonder if you feel it too?

My pulse and mind are racing...
I feel the edge is near, 
I fall deeply and completely
and I wish that you were here. 

You are half a world away from me, 
now it's hard to breathe,
I cry out for your love;
it's such a powerful need.

My tears are hot and heavy,
I cry for what will be,
my love for you is pouring out,
it's burning up inside me.

I feel lost in this emotion;
it's so big I lose control.
I need you here to save me.
I need you to feel whole.
