Loneliness

Loneliness

 

 

 

I feel the cold hand of loneliness slip in,

surrounded by your love,

yet time and distance makes it hard.

 

Sometimes I lie awake and close my eyes,

I reach for you...

 

My body cries to feel you next to me,

the way my heart does.

 

My lips burn to feel yours...

 

Running my finger over my lips I inhale.

How I wish it was your fingers caressing my lips.

 

I long to fall asleep feeling your heart beating beneath my hand,

reassuring that mine still beats.

 

I will bottle my tears of love,

and keep them safe until you are here.

 

I have no doubt you believe our love for each other is real,

it’s just that loneliness makes the bed cold.

 

Until we meet at a time we both agreed on,

know that my love for you will not falter.

Loneliness doesn't last forever my friend. Someday the light will shine through and those dark days will be over.

[ron]

I know...it just takes so long to get a short distance sometimes.

How heart breaking and sad this is, I feel the longing. At least at the end you leave the reader with the faint hope that this couple will get together to ease that pain. Some times there is not even that possibility, for many. Well done.
In my usual fashion, the last word needs to be corrected to falter.
A great write Ron.

[ron]

Thank you Noel. Yes sometimes there is hope...no matter how impossible it feels.
Thank you I will correct it.
