Want

I'm pining for you.
I never realised until
now, but now that I know,
I also know I want
you in my arms.
My soul calls for you
every day as the sun rises,
and still when the moon
watches over my restless,
dreamless slumber.
But if I chance to
dream, you are always
with me, supporting me,
or haunting me in my
constant nightmares.
I tried to cleanse
you from my system, rid
you from my skin, because I
feel your warm fingers
in my hair, everyday.
But no matter how hard I
tried, you never left me alone,
and secretly, I was glad that you
stayed. My heart is
always, eternally yours.
