I sit waiting on the platform,
I do not hear the bustle areound me.
Soon, soon you will be here,
It has been so long
Since your lips brushed mine
Since your eyes fed upon me.
Nervously I fold the ticket in my hand
A fragile slip giving me a few
Extra precious minutes
Until I take your hand
And we are one again.
The train pulls in doors open,
I do not see you in the confusion,
As people alight, mingling,
With those beginning their journey.
My heart races with panic
Until as the crowd clears
I see you, stood waiting
Eyes searching for me.
I run into your arms
And as your lips close over mine
It is I who is home.
A few of you may have noticed there was no post yesterday I will fill you in on the reasons for this tomorrow.
Really lovely, Paula!
