Need

By Kati Frazier

I can see your face.

(Not your features

the foreign visage

seen only in pictures

I see your eyes

holding back tears

And I feel as though

I want nothing more

than to feel you in my arms.

   (A form of human contact

  I long lost familiarity with)

I want to see your lips

form those words

words that I can see

Through the dead letters

  I can feel their life

  (life, no doubt you breathed

  into each one individually)

I need those words

to flow in my ears

as I need air

as I need life

as I need love.
