I LONG TO HEAR YOU

By Lyn Simba Duri

Your voice

I long to hear

Yet in my heart

It’s loud and clear

Your face

I long to see

Yet in my dreams

It’s you I see

Your heart

I long to know

Yet in my spirit,

You belong

I pray you,

In my heart to stay
'Cause there’s so much to say
If only your time you will spare.

ARE YOU THE ONE

More of your wonder,

I long to discover -

Love at 'first sight'?

Maybe -

Strangers that met in virtual space

The connection so immediate

I see you,

Yet I long to see you.

Could you be the one?

Intact,

Unsullied,

Like a white piece of china,

With the deep gold of innocence,

Emblazoned.

Like music to my ears,

Is your 'voice' in its silence...

Yes I 'hear' you,

Yet still,

I long to hear you

Could you be the one?
