It is not
when you are there
somewhere in Nevada
stopping by, to say hi
to her, there on the strip,

or when you are
in her office,
waiting there
in North Carolina
in your hurry to get going somewhere;

nowhere fast,

nor is it
when you are
California dreaming
walking with her
on sandy shores
which bothers me;

it is when
you are not near
enough to hear

my whispers
of good morning

that bothers me

the most.

seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna

The ending of this one is so tender, I kinda wanted to melt.
