LONGING

By: Lisa Castetter

Last night in my thoughts
An image of you in a reflection
brought forth by the ache in my heart
Oh, the trembling in my soul
Craving the gentleness of yourtouch
The bitter chill of emptiness
Thirsting the warmth of your smile
I'm anguish, I close my eyes awaiting the angels of sleep
The pain of your absence gone
for in my dreams we walk together
Just as it should be
