as I sit

     in quiet of night

almost asleep

     but not quite

somehow it slips

     through shadows of time

and space unknown

     a whispered hey

somehow a voice

     full of love

with longing deep

     somehow I know

somewhere they wait

     longing like me

in darkness deep

     the same as me

somehow I know

     that someday we

somewhere will meet

     and together be

whispered hey

     while half asleep

alone in the night
