Anticipation

The days seem long,
The nights feel lonesome,
I live in the anticipation,
That you will be back in my life soon.

The days of love letters are history,
The emails get to be very cryptic,
The ilu and imu seem farfetched,
When what I long to hear are a few live loving words.

What I am missing is not the wealth or pleasure,
But your love and undivided attention,
I want to hold your hands and put my head on your shoulders,
Just being with you makes my life worth living for.

The anticipation of our reunion,
Will erase the pangs of separation from my heart,
The waves on the beach would not be beating the shores that impatiently,
since you will be in my heart, body and soul.
