for days and days

i lay in my tent
in the room down the hall
listening to footsteps
approaching
hesitating
i'm not sleeping

thinking of you
this is
yes this is the truth
i do
you know
think of you
and you may not think i do
but i warm
when you stop at my door
and lean against the frame
and smile

i stared out at the ocean
and thought about
my thoughts of you
how is it that i am so divided
in my thoughts of you

i gazed up at you
when you held me
and pulled back to soothe me with words
within your embrace
and at that moment
i knew
i had to kiss you
did you know it too?
