My love, Jason, read this poem for me. Enjoy :)

Listen to poem:
Sitting at the window Writing your name in the moisture Five letters Of longing Some days are better Than others Today is a bad day Trailing my finger over the letters of your name The window weeps and cries them away I breathe it moist again And write your name again and again Five letters and tears One day I will be better One day I will be safe enough to find you And I will tremble In your arms when you kiss me Five letters your name *** October 14, 2016

"Writing your name in the moisture Five letters Of longing" It conjures the state of mind up for me.

It is heartbreaking when the one you love is not by your side.

It's one of the hardest things, agreed. I'd give anything to be able to be with him. Thank you, Tim.
