Waiting for connection,
my heart stumbles in its rhythm,
aching for the soft glow of your words,
a message that never comes soon enough.
Hollow hours stretch wide,
since last I held you close—
your breath warm against my lips,
our mouths joined in a tender hush.
Ours is no ordinary love.
Not a spark that burns and fades,
but a steady flame, unseen by most,
a bond beyond flesh—
two souls tracing the same path.
Through storms and silence,
we have stood as each other’s anchor,
rock against rock,
holding the weight of the world together,
keeping each other whole.
Still, I wait—
not with despair,
but with quiet faith,
knowing the distance bends,
but never breaks,
what was written for us.
