Between the sheets...

As you walked away
My heart stumbled yet again
All i wanted was wings to fly with you, all the way

As you turned around
My heart burned with fire again
All i wanted was some water to wash it, from your crabby found

As you waved goodbye
My heart tore yet again
All i wanted was some balm from your eyes, to heal it again

As you whispered away
My heart guessed 'i love you' you said
All i wanted was some more of you, to stay sane for a while again

When i came back,
To look up on the empty space
All i saw was rippled sheets that you left behind for me



As i look back now, still trying to feel your presence around me
And all i can see is your face, turned towards me
And your eyes trying to look deep into mine
Kissed me on my forehead, and wrapped me tight in your strong, impenetrable, and unassailable arms

And all i can feel now, is the way you unwrapped me slightly, to look at me,
While you lift my face, very gently with your hands,
And you telling me, ‘I’ll be back very soon, baby!’

  1. I'll be back very soon, baby!

    Great ending - just like a soldier promising to be back soon from the front! Old times! :)
