_______________________________

Eyes gently shut.
Flashes of light form themselves
into your name.
They threatened to open.
I don't dare.
I won't dare.
It's your name I want to keep seeing.

The wind blows harshly on my back,
frigid and constant.
Your name disappears.
You then appear.

I love you
I love you
My brain screams,
So does my heart.

I've forgotten how cold it is.
Your warm hands cup my face.
You're here in front of me.

I stop breathing.
You lean in for a kiss.

Eyes wide open.
Hands on my mouth,
gasping for air.
You were there.
Lips so warm and gentle.

Don't let me wish for you.
I beg of you,
Don't let me miss you.
