Reaching Without You
By Jeni Hill
Without you
There is but silence.
Without you
The essence of my own thoughts are unrecognizable.
I reach for
The voice that brings love.
I reach for
The hope that brings the voice back to my life.
I cannot remember how my life
Ever lived without you.
I cannot remember ever
Not reaching for your love.
I will wait for you.
I will reach for you.
HOW I NEED YOU!
Why must I always wait?
Why must I always reach?
Why can't I hear that voice?
My thoughts are lonely in despair.
My heart is in suspension.
Another breath will not cross my lips
Until your return.
Let me live inside your love.
Let me love inside your life.
Let me reach for what
I can no longer wait for.
I will no longer reach without you.
