Waiting Hoping

The space behind my back where you should be
It's empty and cold without you there sharing your warmth
One arm slung over my hip; the other a pillow for my head
Encasing me in your love; Making me feel protected
I want that back; I want us
curling together in peaceful sleep
I only have to wait a short while longer
But it feels like the time will never come
A few weeks more, sleeping alone
without the comfort that you give me
I just hope that when I get there
You will still be waiting for me
With open arms, welcoming me back
