A prayer for my love.

I wish I could see his face,
touch his skin with such a grace.
Hold him close
just to feel the warmth
of being with the one I love
instead of me being here
and him up above.
Dear God,
make me a bird
so that maybe I could fly
fly high in the sky
through the clouds
against the wind
so that I may see his shimmering existence.
I know he can't hear but I love him so
rest in peace, my dear Russell.
