wishes sent on velvet breezes of night

Might I be the collection
of reasons you smile
throughout the day?
Your “good-morning”
shared with a hug,
“I love you”s exchanged
The secret chuckles of inside jokes
Revisited in texts or just
When eyes connect with understanding
Might I be a quickie
Before a hectic time
Or the one to hear your troubles
When the day is done?
I want to be
The one to fill your need
Fulfill your pleasure
Laugh & cry with you
I want to be your morning, noon,
Evening and night
Then start it all again

…& right now, in this moment?
I want you here
Near
Existing
In shared air
because even in the empty,
even in the lonely
I feel you
I know you
I love you
