Sonnet 2

I wait, forever and a day, for you. 
Your skin, fair as snow; your face as the wind;
I long to hear you call me as you do,
I pray that I may catch the wind again.
I've read every word I've wanted to send,
I type them down so i can choke them down-
Back down my throat where they have always been;
Buried, on them, I hope, that I may drown.
Where you are is just a dream from this town.
Every time I hear your name it haunts me,
And I even hear your voice fade to brown.
Why can't I forget you and let you be?
I sit here, idling in second place,
Dreaming, that one day, you may see my face.
