This

I imagine what it will feel like
to hold you again
in an elongated embrace
and i feel my heart melt.
never in so long
have I felt so separated,
so torn apart
from the thing I love most.
miles across the world,
seeming further than distance travels,
never have I had one so close to my heart,
to my soul,
to the very essence of my being.
if there is a force stronger than that of love,
I feel it now.

it pulls me so hard,
but cannot move my feet.
only can it bring you closer,
and dearer,
to my heart.
to myself.

if I felt it did me justice,
I might say that I love you.
but somehow,
love isn't what i feel.
love seems too generic,
too worn down,
and so I'll have to wait.
I'll tell you with my hands,
my eyes,
my lips.
my voice will not suit this feeling,
no words can compare,
to this
