The long moments of these long days...
They bring me closer;
Bring me nearer to touch you,
Feel you again next to me.

My future is a never ending whirlwind,
So many things and so little time.
This dance we step to more complicated by the passing second-
Take me in your arms and quell this rising storm!

My strength is ebbing-
The smile you wear my only hope.
With the memory of your smell, the soft pads of your fingertips on my cheek;
These are the moments that carry me home.
