the dunes of
the desert are drifting silently…
waiting for
the mideast sun for the final embrace
waiting for
the clouds to pour its boon
and as the Bedouins
gather,
i wait for
you…
this room is
a desert without you
this man is
naught without you…
i wait for a
few more hours…
it’s
nothing, i said.
but an hour
is an eternity
when i die
every second
of your
absence.
come home.
as i am
drowning in this emptiness…
come home
before
anguish engulfs me...
there is not
a sound
in this
four-cornered cell
but the
ticking of this keyboard
ah well…
might as
well close my eyes
as i wait
for you in this bed for two
just one
more hour…
an hour of
solitude…
sixty
minutes of waiting…
i missed you
so much…
"umuwi
ka na..."
