I watched you leave from an airport terminal,
My breath gasped for air,
Your luggage and checkout,
I sat hunched over in a chair,
And my eyes looked out,
To gaze at you; my pupils traced the outline of your body,
And I felt the longing of you pulled to me,
I cried a lake, I cried depths, I cried an ocean.
My throat coughed vividly,
My veins tensed,
To watch you from a seat,
To watch you closely,
My memory of you never escapes me,
I will always hold the outline of your body onto mine,
I will always feel the flame of warmth inside of me,
I will wait endless minutes for your eyes to trace me again,
I will wait endless minutes for my eyes to trace you again,
I will come walking with you,
You have left from an airport terminal,
But you have scarcely left,
You have gone, but you will come,
My fears will pass me,
My throat will sustain,
You will come to trace me again,
And you will be pulled to me,
And me to you.
