I can feel you
Combing your gentle fingers through my long pony tail
And quietly whispering or humming
I'm too sleepy to know
But I feel you here
Loving me
Even though you're over there
A thousand miles away
It's the small smile
The light in your eyes
The words on your face
The way you say princess
It's when I feel you rubbing your nose against mine
Or kissing my forehead
When you're merely pixels on a screen
It's the quick message
That sends me part of you
Or the way I wake up in the morning
And just know
You love me
It's when you're weak and exposed
And I look like a warm blanket
That can wrap around you
I wish I could wrap around you
It's the truth
The communication
And the struggle
And the fight
And it's the tight and secure embrace that comes after
The parts that test our hearts
Whether we're apart or near or at the baggage claim
It's all the same relief and security
To know
I've got you
I love you
I'm here
And I'm working
This is
You are
Worth it
