Contentment eludes me
When you are far
Overcast my heart becomes
When time and distance
Barricade me from the one I love
Internally jittery
Longing
Desiring proximity
Twinges of the heart
Aching for nearness
Unsatisfied
Distraught
But then unexpectedly you appear
And suddenly
Peace
Calm
Fulfillment
Fall on me like a gentle summer rain
The sweetness of togetherness
Work on my soul like a balm
Soothing away the tightness
And constriction
Which ruled just a short time ago
You are that sweetness I desire
The lovingkindness my soul
Cannot bear to be without
The sunlight on my face
And the cool wind in my hair
The smoothness of your touch
The sweet scent of you
