For the one who got away

There is a whisper of a yearning inside me,
so intense that you can feel it too.
We are miles apart, but I can still feel you
lingering in my shadows.
If you turn on the volume of your heartbeat,
you’ll hear it call my name.
I am here.
Waiting.
Anticipating.

Darling, please come home.
