I Want To – Poetry

– Sesi Saradi

I want to bury my face

Into the hollow of

Your neck,

Inhale deeply and

Experience the exhilaration of

Being in your arms.

But all I could think

At that time, is

The ticking of the clock,

The marching of minutes

And time slipping away

Stealthily.

In no time at all,

You are on the road again

Walking towards your

Battle field.

I was left to wonder

When I will get to

Meet you again.
