Longing For Presence

Longing for Presence

 

I'm here, just staring deeply toward

your kindest spirit, and wondering

 

if ever I spoke-up would you hear it

or were you too far gone to listen...

 

could everything be somehow different

if we'd hugged when that was what was meant,

 

but I'm left talking to walls where nothing matters,

and still I'm lonely for you to come or merely beckon
