Just Feel

late night words

If I just feel the life in my fingertips
the love in my veins
the spirit of my step.
If I just look past the sorrow in your posture
the hope missing in your tears
the dissipated reflection in your eyes.
If I could focus on the words of your song
the comfort of your voice
the grip of your hug
the scent of your soul
the wisdom in your wrinkles.
If I could just reach out and grab your hand
and hold it knowing that when I let go
it will be waiting for me when I get back.
If I could just get lost in your gaze
and know that if I ever blink you'll still
be lost in the eyes that have seen all of you.
