Sigh

Longing.

Home.

 

Where the heart and soul

Are one

Which I long to be

With you

By my side.

 

Holding me

Close to your heart

As the tears come

Rolling down my face.

 

Filling my soul

With love.

 

On the darkest days

When the pain

Becomes too much

To handle.

 

Chasing away

The toxic phantoms

Of my past

With a tender kiss

Upon my lips.

 

Caressing my soul

Mending the divisive holes

Which have ripped me

Apart.

 

While watching me

As I bloom

Into the person

Whom I am.

 

A dream

That I wish

Was true.

Author's Note

Not sure, why this poem came into existence, but I couldn't get rid it from my mind. It haunted me, for several hours, before I wrote it.
