Worlds Away

The cool night air wraps around me
A shiver runs through my body
Starlight shines down on us
An almost full moon rises high over head
Another chilling breeze
You sit beside me
So close to me
Close enough to touch
So close I can almost feel the warmth of your body
But worlds away
I miss your touch
I miss the warmth of your body
I miss your warm wet kisses
I miss being close to you
I want to reach out to you
I want to feel the softness of your skin
I want to hold you in my arms and share our heat
I want to be close to you 
In my mind I reach out to you
In my mind I put my arms around you
In my mind I fall asleep
Holding you
But you are worlds away
I can almost feel the warmth of your body
You are almost close enough to touch
So close to me
Beside me
Worlds away
