[smile]

From out of nowhere, it hit me --

Like a freight train at full speed.

My breath short, my mind swimming

In the newly flooded deep waters.

Your eyes haunt me as I sleep,

Tossing, turning, my desires pouring

Out with every choked syllable.

Every minute I wait drags itself out,

Time and space laughing as it pulls

Me down, drags me down like gravity.

With this weight on my shoulders I

Push forward, the wind whipping

At me so fast, so hard -- breathing 

In short bursts, dreaming of your smile.

Smile.
