Waiting to Meet

I am alone right now,
but darling I feel you.
I feel you across valleys,
and I feel you across seas.

I haven’t met you yet,
but I just wanted to tell you
that I feel you.
I’m making notes in

my head of stories
I will tell while we
sit on the kitchen floor,
drinking wine,

dishes from dinner
left messy in the sink.
I already know that your
ears will be eager to

embrace my words,
and that my heart
will hold the deepest
parts of yours.

Until we meet,
I will be here drinking
the sweet memory of the
you I’ve yet to meet.

Because I know
even from afar,
between galaxies,
between planets,

between mountain peaks,
and empty country roads,
you are doing the same
for me.
