the unexpected cold
know
how alone it makes
me feel?
does
the inescapable chill
know
how much it makes
me ache?
i look out
to the east
whispering your name
like a promise
from my lips
hugging
the memory of
what you were
to my heart
willing your
presence to me
i know you're busy
with your life
for this season
i know i'm busy
with my struggle
for a reason
but i can't help
longing for the sight
of you
i can't help
wishing for a night
with you
i look out
to the east
whispering your name
and the sun rises again
(soon)
Distillation. Love at a distance.
