LONGING

I hear his voice and I smile. He says, "I love you," and a tear comes to my eye. He calls me his angel, and I feel adored.

Yet, he's just out of my reach.

I can't hold him, I can't see him, I can't fall asleep in his arms. I would just love to look in his eyes and read his soul.

But, we have to wait, forever it seems. Until that long awaited day, I'll feel empty.

And I will long for him always.
