Reclusive State

you, you, and only you

you have been the only thing in mind lately.
i could close my eyes
and hear your laughter reassuring my ears,
i could sleep at night
and dream about the sparkle in your eyes,
i could let the chilly breeze blow through me
and i'd remember the feeling of being in your arms.
i could go through every day with ease—
because no matter how long the distance stays,
it won't be enough to let the love die.

to my dearest author

yours truly,
your recluse
