hope & love

12 hours on the road,

12 hours with you,

the memory of your smile,

etched in my mind,

the scent of your skin,

lingers on my shirt,

the taste of your lips,

never seem to fade

your teasing words,

words of comfort,

words of hope,

my hand in yours,

our fingers entwined,

&

i shall wait for our lives,

to share the fate of our fingers.
