I wait

I wait

Through lonely nights

Without a touch

Though I crave strongly

I wait

For you

So many would give to me easily

Exactly what I need

But this time

I will not take the shortest route

No more clinging to the nearest

No more settling for the first to come along

I have to know

I have to see

I have to feel

 You have been with me so long…

So many late nights

Talking till the sun came up

Discussing what if's 

You have shown me with your actions

After all this time…

I wait

Without touch 

Through lonely nights

You had best be ready.
