“CLOSER TO BE”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
When the soft wind blows,
caressing my face…
I feel the warmth,
of it’s loving embrace…

It’s like feeling your skin,
touching close to mine…
My heart skips a beat,
then wants to re-align…

Yet the sadness is there,
holding me back from you…
Not knowing where to turn,
at times not having a clue…

I’ve heard your gentle voice,
whispering thoughts to cope…
To embrace you my desire,
closer to be, searching for hope…
