Talk To Me

Silent;
the night pervades
it seems longer now
lasting legacy
for the absence of
                   you


What do you feel right now?

                   I lie here
                             cold                    the covers
                                       underneath
                             stricken by the fear that
                             maybe all is in your world
                             as is in mine
                   not well
         sad


lonely



I mean no annoyances
and I pray that such is other
than what to you
         I have become

Just remember that all I intend is the best...

                             to be able to hold you
                             caress your skin
                             run my fingers through your hair
                             and whisper in your ear
                             that I'd spend with you
                             ten thousand of these nights
                             if only you'd give me the chance

But right now
the physical distance is not
that which separates us
and leaves me feeling so incredibly alone
this is a gap that can be bridged
talk to me
and all will be well
