I am enamoured by this longing
I am plagued by this need
You have left me in absolute desiderium
Fuelled strongly by your absence
The feeling scratches off the scab formed over my soul
Its power rewinds the memorializing handiwork of healing
And leaves me deflated, dejected, and defeated in its wake
I have sought highlands.
To ebb its onslaught
I have trekked lowlands.
To commingle with neighbouring emotions
I have done everything humanely possible
Even explored the arcane
To experience something on the same wavelength
And I have sold pieces of me
To hold you again
It has all been for naught
It dawns on me every day
It has all been for naught
Every moment of absence shortens a telomere
It has all been naught
Yet everything points towards this
That's how far away you are
Forever remains how far away home is
Therefore
Lord join me with my home
Or Rid me of my angst
But please keep in my heart this hiraeth
