Unknown.....Questions? Poem by Sharon Mountz

How I long to lay my head on your chest
and feel your heartbeat against my hand,
feel you breathing against my ear,
and feel your arms wrapped around me
in quite thought.

Is there time enough....
To tell you all my secrets
all my desires
all of my fears
and still have you embrace me
with pleasure, joy, and lust?

Will we ever come together?
Or is our fate
only to expect
but never receive our human touch
against one another.

Why the wait?
As time passes
nothing separates me from you in thought
only the physical distance
hinders my reach for you
and torments me with questions.

And yet, everything;
every thought
every sigh
every dream
brings me back to you.
