I toss and turn you're not there.
I reach my hand out there is only air.
You may not be here now.
But, in my mind you are there.
My stomach aches but I am full.
Full of wonder of what could be.
Looking to the sky for that one star.
But, the sky is clear of stars.
Till I notice a patch of clouds moving.
Out from behind the clouds is one star.
Shining very bright. I watch closely.
The star flickers like a wink.
Letting me know my future is bright.
I reach out with my hand again.
This time it is full with your hand.
I smile and wink back at the star.
Walking away hand in hand with you.
