Waiting For You

Waiting For You

I breathe, I steady myself.
Can’t breathe, can’t for the life of me figure out WHY
Why you haven’t noticed…
Why you haven’t noticed me.

Sitting inches from you, ITCHING
Itching to feel you caress my face
With your big--
Your big, gentle hands that could never hurt anyone,
Except me.

You breathe in. I breathe in.
We exhale together.
So close but still so far…
So far you haven’t noticed.
Haven’t noticed that I…
I am yours.
Forever.

You breathe in.  I breathe in.
Our moment hangs in the balance for you--
For you to notice me.
Until then
I breathe, I steady myself.
