The days blur as I begin to doubt your existence.
Up until now, faith alone kept me going,
kept me hoping, and wishing
that you are somewhere out there.
But where? I asked.
I'm so hopeless.

In a perfect world,
time counts down and offers me a fragment of solace.
I wait as the sands of time reveals when I can
finally embrace you with open arms.

This world, however; is not perfect.
Days slowly turn into months,
and months into years as my faith in you wavers.
I must reassure myself once more that you are indeed out there.
You do exist, do you not?

Time unforgiving, and fate unchanging,
I resign myself to the fact
that some things are just out of my control.

If I had but one wish,
it would be to fly away with you
and experience all the warmth
and richness the fruit of life has to offer.

Yet, for now I must stay grounded.
For now, I can only gaze upon the blue sky and wonder.
