i’m here
can you feel me?

god i have a question for you
there is no rush
but you understand the need of it

whisper it to me in your language
i am in your home now

i can feel your presence here

perhaps tell me through the waves
or in the soft breeze
like a gentle kiss on the forehead of your child
before putting them to sleep
to provide them a nurturing reminder
you’ll be there in the morning

i like to think that just me being here
in one of the most beautiful places i’ve ever seen
yet still wondering if he feels me too
that we will return together
is a sign of a yes
but my lord
if you could only give me that reminder

…
maybe that is it
perhaps that breeze
is an affirmation

i am not sure
but somehow i still pray
and hope it is soon

that the breeze and the waves
of this salty night
is accompanied by the equally gentle
touch of my lover
