Soon;
I'll touch you like a lover,
Taste you like a lover,
Hold hands with you like a lover.

  Soon;
Our tears won't have to fall silently
throughout the night, leaving us to
stare at nothingness as the loneliness
eats away our hearts.

  Soon;
Darling.
You will be here in my arms.
And I in yours. Will never feel
fear in our hearts again as we spend
our lives together forever.

   Soon;
All this hard work will pay off.
And my lips will touch yours.
Our tongues will dance,
Our fingers will twine around each other's.
  
   Soon;
I can wake to your darling face.
Your hauntingly beautiful laughter.
Your eyes will look into mine.
There will be no distance between us no longer.

   Tears;
Seem to seep down my face.
And my heart races wildly.
I want you here beside me.
Telling me everything beautiful in this life.
You are the air I breathe.
The thoughts I think.
The blood in my veins.

   Pain;
Will go away slowly.
And will heal each other's hearts.
I'll heal your wounds even if you
don't heal mine, but I know you will.
I trust you with everything I am.
I trust you with the air in my lungs.
I would breathe it out to give you life.
I would stop my heart to start you.
   
   Soon;
Darling, I will write my poetry and
sweet words along your body, and
whisper with each kiss how much
I adore the man you are. The way
you make my body feel when you
stare deeply at me with intensity.

   Soon;
Our hearts won't howl to the moon.
Crying out in angst, our pillows will
lay forgotten no longer needing to be
held to get us through the night. The
long cold night that swallows us into
sorrow.

   I;
Want to tell you so much.
With words to your face.
Staring up at you, smiling to my brightest.
Letting you know the world revolves around
just you. And, only I ever find beauty or
life or dreams in the way you say you love
me. You give me perfection.

  Even;
When perfection escapes me.
I trace my finger over the glass.
Letting the fog film over my finger-tips.
I count down the hours, the days, the years.
Of when you will be here. And, we would start
the home we've always talked about.
The family we always wanted.

   Taste;
Touch, senses.
They roam higher as I twist in my sheets.
Imagining your aching body wrapped around mine.
Your body fingers massaging away the years of
heartbreak, as mine did the same. I feel sensual.
Creative, inspired. Bemused. Like a woman.
Who found everything she was looking for in a
man.
    
   Love;
It got us through this.
It gets us through these days.
Of yelling and screaming.
Of soft words and love making.
We made it this far. And, we're
still holding on tightly.
 
   Soon;
My dreams will come true.
I hope yours does too.

   Soon;
I'll have your arms around me.
With tears in my eyes.
Because, I'll get to touch you like a lover.
Taste you like a lover.
Hold your hand like your wife.
Through each year of our life.

   Soon;
Everything will be as it should.
With you and I intertwined,
No longer alone.

  Soon;
I find myself giddy.
Because I can barely wait.
For your lips to touch mine.
Your voice to speak through me.
Your hands to inspire me.
Your body to corrupt me.
Your embrace to mold me.

  Soon;
We'll be filled with love.
And no longer will we feel that pain.
That almost kept us far away.
