Hoping that you'll come back

One more kiss for the road, one last touch of skin and lips and fingertips. I'm closing my eyes tonight and hoping that you'll come back quickly, come back safely, come back with your smile and your eyes.

It won't seem like that long once you return to my arms, and it won't feel like forever when I breathe you in again. Until then the days will stretch into a silent eternity, and the nights will be full of the loneliness of empty arms.








I'll miss you.
