Today

Been so long
since I
held you

in my heart
and squeezed
a thought
that mattered
teased a wish
that might
please
my soul

been so long
since I
felt you

in my hand
and used
a song
that I heard
fused a dream
with the
muse
in my brain

been so long
since I
knew you

in my mind
and pulled
out the truth
to be
lulled by faith
to the
dullness
of my days

Been so long
until today.
