Tethered

Do you feel the bridge between our souls?

My body aches for the feeling of your hands and

the glimpse of your face right before you wake.

This intangible energy pulsating between oceans

to connect us

To collide our hearts with a single brush

of our lips.

One cannot feel what it does not know,

but I feel you all around me.

The wind becomes your arms,

embracing me with its warmth

The rain becomes your kisses,

washing away the heartache from loves past

The Earth became your words,

breathing life into my shell of existence and giving me

purpose

You are the fire and you have set me ablaze.
