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!’
