Will time be taken
For a moment to see you,
Will words be spoken,
Gazing into eyes gray blue
Or will you just phone
Between your places and home?
I try not to weep,
At least till I go to sleep
Wishing I was not alone.

Lotus, I understand what you mean to say, you need to correct a couple of words, to help your meaning come across, perhaps like this:

~*~

Will time be taken
For a moment to see you,
Will words be spoken,
Gazing into eyes gray blue
Or will you just phone
Between your place and home?

I try not to weep,
At least till before I sleep
Wishing I was not alone.

~*~

The change to your "sleep" line is that one may or may not cry in one's sleep; but changes are, before they sleep, they would certainly know whether they cried a little, or not.

Does that make sense?  It is so good to see you writing again.  I miss you when you are away.  Thank you for sharing.

The longing is deeply felt.
Touching.

I can't imagine that would be by anything other than choice, but the poem is (also) beautiful.
