What I Want

The wind blows the long curtains against the sliding glass door.

Feeling the breeze during the midday sun.

I sit here as another Sunday goes by,

The children play outside

I am with them, yet I am alone inside.

I miss the sharing of my heart in this space.

How much I miss laying in bed on a weekend afternoon.

Not having taken a shower and my hair in a ponytail.

Having my love beside me to snuggle up to

Just to watch television

Just to make love

Just to sit in a chair outside and hold hands as the sun goes down.

This is all that I want.

It gets lonely for me at times being the only grown up in the house.

Missing some adult interaction beyond the confines of my computer.

All I want is to hold onto someone on my couch again,

Lay my legs across there

Make silly faces

Give soft kisses

Wrap my arm around their chest.

This is what I want.
