Waiting Tide by Jessica Kristie

I wait for you by this Oceanside
Heart in my hand,
dreams like salty breezes.
Visions of a moment - when you make my world stand still.

I wait for you.

Because you are worth waiting for.
With every moment,
I breathe your worth
With every breath,
I need you more.

I wait for you.

With sand between my toes,
and windblown hair -

I wait...
for you to meet me here,
the in-between.

Where dreams stay beyond tomorrow,
and your body passes through me,
more than just today.

I will wait for you.
Not for you to love me,
but for the next moment you touch me,
and take my breath away.
