smaller

Smaller than a bread box is my heart,
so much bigger than that box,
is my love for you.

Arms empty, for now,
longing to hold you.

Arms reaching past their length,
stretching, reaching, dreaming.

Time and space,
so far, so wide.

Need great,
desire thirsting,
wanting, wishing,
whispering in your ear.

Questions so many,
answers unknown,
dreams dreamt,
wondering, wishing,
wanting, waiting.
