You are in Africa
I am here
You are among beautiful lands
I am with empty hands.
 
I long to hold you
I can’t reach that far
A few miles
or an entire countryside
doesn’t matter
you are not by my side
 
I have no shoulder
 to cry on
No eyes to see
feelings put on hold
words unspoken
many desires untold
 
I cry for you
just to be near
I dream of you
loneliness shares a tear
 
Why
I must ask
“Do I love you so much?”
wanting you always
within my touch.

I don't think love can ever be really "explained." Thanks for sharing. Love and peace,
