Your eyes are the darkness,
Visage imagined,
Voice the song of the night.
I long to stand with you,
Holding your hands,
Feeling the passion ignite.
Eyes lost in each other,
Lips inches apart,
Anticipating embrace.
My heart feels your love,
My soul holds you tight,
My mind can see your face.
But my fingers are numb,
All sounds are hushed,
Colors have all gone gray.
What use are hands
And ears and eyes
When you are far away.
I cry out your name,
Call out in the dark,
Pray to the Gods above.
Beg for that moment
When we can know more
Than silent whispers of love.
