A Wish...

I wish I could see the air,
Not feel a vague, nebulous nothing.
I wish, to see the air
To know, to see, to feel,
To experience...

Too see the aura,
The sheltering cloak
Of your Love,
Protecting me;
To touch the warmth
that spreads, from your eyes;
To feel and tighten
The bond,
between us!

I savour each moment;
This togetherness.
I breathe you every moment;

But-
If only I could see you-
Even when you're not there-
In the air...

No more would
I wish...
