I Am Whole When You Are NearA Poem by Siddartha Beth PierceEvery moment
of every day
without you
near me
leads me to pray
for the next time
that I will see
your beautiful gaze
embrace you once more
for without you
here with me
I am at a loss
longing to be with you
always
I hope that is not too much
to wish for
as I have simply found
within you
the brilliant mind
I have always sought
the bright spirit
I wanted to find
the living heart
that binds me to you
forever in my soul
the deepest azure blue.
No matter what may
occur
please know that
I adore
you more with each passing
moment
whether together or apart
I think of you always
longing to be near you
once more
if only to rest my head upon your
shoulders at night
listening to your divine heartbeat
so quietly there
by my ear
I am whole when you are near.
