Just a Little While Longer
Nights away from you seem to be the longest. It’s like trying to find comfort in emptiness, trying to feel your warm skin in these cold sheets, tossing and turning left and right in search of your face, but instead I see a blank wall staring back at me. Oh how I wish it were your eyes that I were staring into. Just to be lost in the pool that is your love, drowning but never wanting to be rescued. But instead, I’m alone. Still I tell myself, just a little while longer till she comes home. But what am I to do till then? My flesh is screaming to be touched by your fingertips, my lips on your lips, my hands on your hips as I dip… my sorrows into your joy. Never wanting to leave this place, but instead my bed is filled with empty space. So I just tell my heart to wait. Stay strong. It’s just a little while longer till she’s back where she belongs.
