Separation Anxiety



I am in the doldrums

waiting, watching, on alert.

Holding my breath 

as I think of you. 

I can hear your voice

tell me you love me,

and I exhale slowly 

as the tightening of my chest

releases; still, I miss you.

And I want for you

to be near me 

that I can feel you again...

like in the time of our youth

when I came to you

and we began this journey.

The feeling of echoes surrounds me,

I don’t know how to describe this 

aching in my soul that longs for you.

The only homesickness I’ve known

leads me to you, I wait,

dreaming.
