If Only

Can you feel it?
My heart thumping
Like the rhythmic beats from a drum,
Waiting for your love.

Can you see it?
My eyes tearing up,
Creating warm pools of water
In my cold empty eyes.

Can you hear me?
My voice crying out,
Hoping for your return
With each passing thought of you

My heart grows to a distraught rhythm.
My eyes filled with water, flood my face.
My voice breaks from days of wailing.

If only...you'd come back.
If only I could feel, see and hear you again.
