Longing

Seems as though that which she desires is so far

out of reach

morning comes and still she can't see

a glimpse, a blink or a shadow

of what she hopes will be



like a mirage in the desert her life

has turned dry and sandy

windblown in the darkest of night and cold

fighting back the tears that hide waiting to

overtake her false sense of pride



she longs to hold and to be held by the hand

cherished, treasured and consumed like

a satisfied craving for a rich piece of chocolate

with almonds, a sweet caramel blend



Home for her heart is in the distance

this is what powers her fierce desire

a resting place filled with all the things she's

longing for....
