Touchy Feely

I wish these arms

Didn’t feel empty,

Or that my nights, my days,

Didn’t feel lonely.

Each day that passes,

And I don’t see your face-

The seconds pass like minutes,

And the hours like decades.

I long to hear you speak again,

For no other sound

Makes me feel as happy,

Or makes my heart rush.

I can’t remember a time

When I consistently wanted

A hug from someone

As often as I do from you.

I can’t help that I’m already yours…

But I can only dream

That you would say,

That you’d be mine too.
