Too Far Away (to A.N.)

by Melanie A Bennett

Hundreds of miles away
You are sleeping...
Too far away
For me to watch your chest rise and fall in your sleep
To see your lips parted and your eyelashes flutter as you dream
Too far for me to lean in and brush your lips with mine
Hoping you'll awaken
And bring me into your dreams with you...

Author's Note: To my sweetheart who lives too far away :( (Hopefully not for long)

I know how this feels! You do a great job of spelling it out. Hope you get closer soon. :)
