Love Poem: Distance Holds Our Love

Distance Holds Our Love

Distance holds our love in bondage
It could be one mile of country road
Or maybe three thousand miles
Of sand, ocean, and the breeze

However, it cannot hold how I feel about you
I know I cannot touch you
However, the wanting is over-flowing
To embrace you with my everything

It consumes my thoughts
Tearing reality away from my heart,
Leaving me in a dream state of mind
Between dosing and wakefulness

Every ounce of my body
Feels this magnetic strength
Drawing, pulling me closer to you
I try to fight it off; but I cannot

Tell me when, when I will be
In your arms again my love
To inhale you... to hold you for eternity
Please darling... tell me when!
