When We Are Apart

Each day all my treasured thoughts, you lay claim
While minutes stretch and I search for patience
Restlessness arrives and your love I'll blame
Desire calls and the heart yearns in absence
When do I not search my heart's space for you?
Alone in the world, no matter the crowd
To sense you close and feel these thoughts so true
To reach inside, still them from ringing loud
And know loneliness with its reservior
When I hear whispers from your voice within
They move across worlds and their farthest star
And speak to me, it's where our love begins

To find soft caresses, when my love's sought
This sanctuary, of you in my thought
