Seeing you there

Seeing you there,
lying beside me,
knowing you are
already miles away.

Wishing you here,
looking inside you,
trying to pull you
away and back now.

Meet you halfway,
seeing the way in,
your soul begins
to drift away,
from me.

Then crying out to you,
every tear of my heart,
every flame of my love,
feeling my heart beat above.

Inside you, feel me
close and holding tight,
my grip is not fading,
listen no distance grow.

Wishing me there,
I want to go with you,
I cannot bear to be left
behind you, alone.

Then I hear you breath,
the sudden gasp & it shakes me,
into a shock, I cry and I can believe
and now hold you gently, knowing.

I should tell you, it can wait.
