Longing

By: Paul LoRegio

Everytime you pass before me my heart skips a beat
And everytime your voice surrounds me I can feel the heat
Pulse races and body trembles- hoping we’ll soon meet
I long for you.

Feelings scattered ‘cross my mind like clouds upon the breeze
Thoughts and words fly everywhere, yet can’t be formed with ease
What it is you mean to me; clear for one who sees
I long for you.

Drowning in a sea of dreams of what I hold most dear
Trapped within a cell I formed by wanting you so near
Companioned in the nights to come, shedding heart born tears
I long for you.

You could be my sun, my moon, my stars within the sky
I would give you all you need and never question why
We have only to join our hearts and venture forth to try
I long for you.

I would answer questions that you never knew to ask
I would gladly go and complete all your unfinished tasks
But most of all, I’ll help tear down your self-protective mask
I long for you.

When you finally have the strength to let your heart go free
You’ll find that her lost wanderings will end when she’s with me
I offer all it is I am and all I’ll ever be
Long for me.
