IRC LOVE

by: Cari aka Cheep

I am standing alone in this room.

It is dark.
You are not here,
yet I can feel you,
smell you,
hear your heartbeat.
The power of you is all around me,
sweeping me up
and carrying me
across the chasm of my broken dreams.
You alone hold me safe and keep me sane.

I long for your touch,
though I know it is one that I shall never feel.
I long to feel you inside me
knowing full well that I shall never feel you there.
I take a deep breath and you fill my soul with hope.
I listen for your voice but I have no way to hear you.
I reach out for you even though you are not here,
yet you take my hand and place it in yours.
I close my eyes and you hold me tight.
I pull you close in my heart and our hearts beat as one.
And you still hold me tight.

We move to music that has no bounds.
We laugh, we cry, we love and we live.


I am standing in this room with you my love.

It is not dark.
