your fingers

know my body

but you do not call

on my birthday.

your tongue

knows mine

but you do not know

the words i speak.

your soul

has touched me

but you only got

skin deep.

do you know the dreams

i dream,

the world i see -

the way the stars cry

while i wait for you,

always waiting.

do you know the longing

i feel

the way the oceans

run deep,

waves crashing -

always crashing.

you know how

i make you feel

(good)

but it seems -

that is all

you wish to know.

call me.
