The Wait

19 days to wait
18 days of text 'I love you'
17 electronic kisses
16 text 'I love you too'

15 days to wait
14 sleepless nights
13 more to toss and turn
12 times knowing 'This is right.'

11 days of waiting
10 is half way there
9 throw away your loneliness
8 I will always know you care.

7 days of waiting
6 as we draw near
5 less than a week left
4 to hold you, my dear.

3 days of waiting
2 you will always be mine
1 as I'm on my way
Back to bliss divine.

Thank you. I have a boyfriend who I don't get to see very often. He and I have been passing the days between visits by writing silly things. The last wait, 12 days, he wrote a list of stuff he'd give to his true love (me). But I'm not good at lists, so I wrote a poem instead. I am so glad that you like it.

I love it. Its short and precise. It's deep and meaninful and it has a new age sort of connotation. great work.
