I Wait

I wait I feel my heart beat wildly and slowly look to the door I’m sure that you are there I can feel your presence I sense the way you touch me though your hand I can not see I close my eyes and I know that it is you as the scent of your cologne fills the room Quietly, I settle into the chair waiting to hear a whisper or a sigh Wanting to hear the sound of your voice Praying to look again into your deep blue eyes but you’re not here I know that nothing that I have is the same as it once was I understand that it never can be again, yet I wait Patiently I listen as if that moment is upon me Nothing, I turn, and still nothing I wait only to be disappointed but I know that you are here I feel you and whether it is real or imagined I hope I cling to the hope that someday I will see you standing before me again I wait and I will continue to wait
