Longing

A sound that’s soft and light,

A voice that’s laced with love,

Eyes filled up with doubt,

And arms that hold you tight.

Just another pair of lips,

That like to smile and pout.

Can’t you feel me longing,

Crawling in the dark.

Searching through the maze,

That leads me to your heart.

Maybe you’re too broken,

Your eyes are grey and stark.

Hands that whisper softly,

Across your sacred skin.

Fingers that wish,

To intertwine with yours.

And your blue eyes,

That always make me spin.

There’s never been a cure,

No way to erase,

The pain and suffering,

Of a broken heart.

But I’ve always tried to help,

Take you away from here.
