A poem by Alex Dunbar

Here, inside my heart
Where devils fear to tread
Wish you were here
Wish you were near
Wish I could feel your breath
On my ear
Wish I could touch you
I wish I could taste you
And scream your name
As I'm pressed against you
Wish you were here
Wish you were near
Making memories
In the face of fear
Through foreign places
Young passion chases
Far off provinces
And beautiful faces
Wish you were here
Wish you were near
As I turn the page
On another year
With enduring lust
And building trust
Re-discover each other
Despite the rust
Wish you were here
Wish you were near
So you could brush away
An occasional tear
If only we could find
Our wandering minds
Amidst the tumultious
Confusion of the times
Wish you were here
Wish you were near
To sail away
In an oceon so clear
We could prosper and heal
Merge to make love
If only I knew that
You were real
