Tonight, I called you 
across the darkness.

Could you hear my voice?

Drifting over the valley,
floating along the river,
in search of you?

Can you feel the presence
of my thoughts?

They seek to entwine with yours
and fold around you.

As would my arms,
if only you were here.

I shall fend off sleep once again,
so that we may be together 
before the light invades.

And separates us 
once again.
