it hurts that i can't have you near.

we talk,
we say,
we want, though i cannot hear.
i cannot breath,
i cannot feel.

i need your touch,
your scent,
your voice fresh in my ears.

i want,
you want,
we need, the need and the long to be with.
but atlas, it is so far away.

three years,
two years,
one, how long will it last?

the sleep i dread now is only yet to be found. by you.
the sleep i now long and want to be is desired by you. desire me too.

it hurts i can't have you near, but
the feeling is oh so close.
the time is near to feel that there is something here
between us.
