Dead longing

Your love has slain me.        
Sucked all the life from        
my body.        
       
Oh, how strong my love        
is! My brittle dead bones        
long for you.        
       
My heart even beats a        
little when I think of you.        
Oh, my love.        
       
If only I could hear and        
see and feel, but I shall        
not complain.        
       
To be near you is worth        
a thousand deaths and so        
much more.
