Finger Strokes

As my fingers stroke these words

I'm reminded 

of how you have left your mark 

across my heart.

Lingering

In

Overwhelming

Need

Of 

More of you

As I stroke

These pages

You your 

Love

I

Grab onto 

Hope

Everlasting

Promise 

Happiness 

Sunshine

And

Togetherness 

As I write

Only you

Fill 

This

Pen

I hold.

You created

A softness 

In me

For you

Writing your

Name across 

The sky

As my fingers

Stroke

These

Pages

Of 

You
