Tomorrow Morning

return to poetry index

 

tomorrow morning I will open my eyes
and you will be there by my side
I might reach out a hand
to lightly brush your skin
to remind myself
how you feel

you don't feel like any other
you don't just trigger touch
when I reach out to you
it's like a circuit is completed
and I am charged again with love

there will never be another like you
because you fill the cracks in me
and I want to be better
each day
for you
