Telephone Love Poem by Ibrar Siddiqi

They say that long distances can break two hearts.
I sit by the phone to hear your voice.
The pensive salutaion to the I love you.
Six months apart, I'm so blue.
Miss you around our lovenest.

I want to say things to please you,
longing for your return to make love together.
The days are never ending, the nights longer still.
Words of passion,
This bessotted fool will utter to fill the gap,
till I next speak to you.

I want to kiss you from top to toe.
Savour the lipstick that you wear.
The clothes that hide my lover,
in a passionate moment I would tear.
To smell the parfum on youe hips, neck and breasts.
A testament to the love I miss.

Come back my lover,
Fill this void in my ever cold chest.
I will faithfully wait for your next call.
Be that today, tomorrow or whenever,
I want this love to manifest.
No other love has stood the test of doubt or hope.
I will never cut this eternal bond that binds us together.
