Waiting
On a day where
the rain
attacks the windshield
only to be brushed away
like an ill-timed rebuke,
yet caresses my face
sweeping back my hair to unveil
the intensity of longing caused by you
do you think of me?
My entire being sings for you-
My life resonates in your echoes.
I will wait for you...
will you ever come to me?
I dreamed last night of a kiss-
that you leaned down to me
and covered my mouth with yours,
wholly bound to me
as if your tongue wrapped around mine
joined us more than in a marriage
any lovers are.
Do you dream of me?
My entire being sings for you-
My life resonates in you echoes.
I will wait for you...
will you ever come to me?
When I first said your name
it began to grow in me.
On my breath
I hear the whisper of the words.
My heart beats to the rhythm
of the syllables immortally
impressing themselves on my pulse-
in my blood.
Do you long for me?
My entire being sings for you-
My life resonates in you echoes.
I will wait for you...
will you ever come to me?
