A Simple Longing

I wish that I could put my arms around you feel the warmth and softness of you catch my breath on the fragrance of your hair and feel you breathing against my neck as I murmured to you all of the ways I love you and everything you've always meant to me. I would gladly abandon that wish if you could be always well again as once upon a time you were.
