I hate to see you go,
so far away.
tonight's our last night
for a month
and my heart has been dreading
the fact that I know
I won't sleep.
wait,
please,
in this
moment
please.
just wait,
let me breathe you in
let me hold you
let me bask in the light
of your smile
your laugh.
the closer I get
to your heart
the more it hurts
the farther you are.
but no distance
can successfully demolish
what I hold in my heart for you
and no distance
can touch how much
I care for you.
I will yearn for you
until we meet again
but you must vow
to be safe
and come home.
please come home to me.

please come home to me.
Existential dread and missing you even though you're right here.
