Slowly lost in a haze of incense and gin
Letting time kill me and not fighting back
I’ve counted the hours since our lips last met
Saying I miss you pales to how my heart yearns to be close
To you
Only you
One more night
and then several more
Alone
The days pass to slowly while I move forward
Wanting you
Your voice calls to me from dreams I have yet to venture
Your eyes eating away at the layers of my soul
From the photo at my bedside
I can still smell you on my pillows and sheets
One more night
and then several more
I’ll hold you close
As if we were never apart
Even in dreams…
