Longing at Dawn

Would I ever see your face?

Would I ever gaze into your eyes,

Deep and dark as a black hole,

Devouring me with love?

Would I feel you like the breeze on my skin,

As fields of wild grass and flowers

At my fingertips?

Would you steal my breath

As you breathe,

Close to me,

Looking into my soul?

Would you see the world through my eyes

While I borrow yours, admiring your sight?

Would you calm my thunderstorms

As I tame your demons?

Would you turn shadows into light

As I embrace your dark?
