To Long

I close my eyes and I think of you
I miss you when we must be apart

I miss the touch of your hand upon mine
and I long for your slow sweet kisses

I wait anxiously for you to return
I'm excited for you to make love to me
the way you do

Hours feel like days and 
I cant see you fast enough

Soon I open my eyes
I don't like what I must see
The cold reality
My reality

The fact is
you are here
at home now
With me

But not really

And yet you are so far gone
But not quite

It's been this way to long
So I ask of you

Come to stay
Or stay away
