Wait

She can’t kiss me,
Can’t hold my hand,
She can’t express to me
All those extra syllables
She spills after all her sentences,
The stutter in her eyes
Whenever she looks at me,
I know she want’s to
Never let me go,
She yells after me
Silently as I leave,
Fearing I’ll never return,
Little does she know;
I will always come back,
I will never ever let go;
My pull is stronger than 
She can ever imagine,
My eyes will never look away
From her smile,
My ears will never go deaf
To her laughter,
I want to breath her into me,
And meld my hands to hers,
But she’s been hurt before,
And patiently I wait…
