eons of waiting
left alone without you
hoping for the day when we
can fall asleep together.
on the porch, looking out
over the rain-soaked ground
i feel you there with me
and yet your absence aches.
one day we will be as one
but until then i feel a pang
every time i think of how
i cannot see you now.
however much i try
to push the thought of you
someplace where it will not hurt,
it always returns to me.
remaining forever
in the back of my mind,
ready to spring up
and latch onto me again.
the only consolation in this
heartstring-tugging dilemma
is, although today I do not see you,
tomorrow is the day i do.
