Your sweet kiss
Is what I seek
Not only
On my lips but
To every ounce of dread
Your tender kisses
That dried away my tears
Away from yesterday’s anguish
To each fresh day of beginnings.
Your distinct voice
Is what I miss
Not only
On my ears but
Even more so in my soul
The sound of your voice
That makes me blush
It also calms my nerves
With each spoken word.
Your delicate touch
Is what I desire
Not only
On my skin but
Deep within my heart
Your soft touch
That transcends
My dark mind
Back into the glowing light.
The end is nigh
I sense the chill
I’m losing warmth
I wish you’re near,
If and when you are here
Wrap my weak body
In your strong arms
If you will.
I don’t ask much
I didn’t whine ever
My fervent prayer
May you grant,
From you, my Master
Only these are all I need.
I will await your return
Even if I wait in vain
Before the night is gone
Before my life is done.
