A quick note,
A rushed phone call,
A smile from a photo taken far away.
The knowledge that the one you love,
Loves you equally.
These, that germinate the seeds of longing,
A longing immense…never before felt.
One that pulls at the heart without remorse.
Yet from the pain instilled,
Infinite pleasures are born.
The thought of once again,
Holding you in my now empty arms.
Memories of the sweet taste
Of your warm lips on mine.
Remembering the scent of a far off love…
Anticipation of the moment our bodies will touch,
Entwined in a timeless moment of passion.
These somehow subdue the longing…
Allowing the heart to continue its beat,
For the days of longing now grow short.
