A Hug

I miss her terribly.

And I ache for her.

    I long to give her a hug;

    One of those hugs that stops time,

      And calms the heart.

       One of those hugs that makes your forget where you are,

        And consumes you entirely.

          One of those hugs that reminds you of who you are with,

           And why you need them.

Yeah . . . I want a damn hug from her,

    Because I am breaking,

And she broke me.

   So she is the only one that can fix me.

I want one of those hugs that melts away exhaustion and stress,

   And reminds you no matter what happens next,

     Everything will be okay,

       Because you have each other. 

I want a hug from her. 

    And only her. 

     I want a hug where I can smell her hair,

      And feel her warmth,

       And feel her heart beat.

I want a hug that heals.

    A hug that loves.

     A hug that trust.

 I want a hug from her.

I’d give it all away

   Just for a hug from her.
