From a Teenager's Diary

                 I have ached for you
    From bone to skin
                 I have ached for you
  With an ache that defies gravity                                                                        
                Every movement of mine
     Is halved by your absence                                                                    
                And doubled with the hope that the distance is
Breaking

                Every so often when I speak out a word
                 It lies
            Ringing in the air like it     needs  
               To be stilled in your mouth    

And every so often I
Ache for you
Heart to vein to vein
Like every new pump of life
Is flowing life into  
You    

                   And sometimes
        I swear I look into the mirror
                     And whisper  
                         'Appear'.
