Every time I see you fading,
I reach for your smile and capture your face.
I wish I could hold you in my mind,
But it isn't my place to take you.
You are a simple joy in life.
A small gift left to ground me.
You don't know the magic you possess,
Or how you've found a way to calm me.
I finish and add to our conversations,
These peaceful moments between us.
I'm worried that I've made you into someone you are not.
I seem to do that a lot.
The difference is,
I'd wait for you if you told me to.
