An Unspoken Wish

A hand to hold, and eyes that listen.

Ears that interpret, and a heart that feels.

A step towards you, is all that I yearn.

A tear of faith, a smile of trust.

Your shadow that withholds my soul,

And surrounds me as a whole.

A life to surrender, a life to fulfil.

Your footprints are engraved,

A deep imprint on a journey I take.

A wish unspoken but a wish long sought.

A breath long lost, a breath now caught.
