One Last Time (?)

Quietly,
I lie in bed
and hang
on every word you said
I close my eyes,
I toss and turn
as in my head
these questions burn

if you could see me
one more time
then, would that make you
change your mind?
if I could simply
hold your hand
would that help you
to understand?

I toss and turn
right out of bed
I think I'll start my day,
instead
I know there's nothing
I can do
my heart will always
ache for you

I have to see you
one more time
to put at ease
my troubled mind
I would erase
this space apart
and hear the music
of our hearts

I'd say "I love you"
one more time,
and stare into
those deep blue eyes,
I'd lock you in
a passionate kiss
and hope my presence
would be missed

then we can go
our separate ways
and maybe meet again,
someday
and I'll make sure
that fire still burns
to light the way
for your return
