October Promise

Stay calm.
I know it's not easy
and the leaves are falling the way we fell in love,
as your breath fills the air in white bursts
and all we have are long distance calls
your face over Skype,
blowing kisses, whispering "I love you, I'll see you soon"
But the seasons are changing.
There's a forever for us, and it's coming closer each day.
Close your eyes, go back to last night,
try and remember my lips on your skin.
You are so worth the wait.
You are the air in my lungs
and the song on my lips,
your voice plays in my head,
could I have just one more kiss?
Your love fills me, leaves me warm
even though the air is cold,
the memory of your arms around me
fills my heart with warmth and peace
and a sweet joy I've never known.
I am so in love with you.
