The Ache

It settles in my chest as I dial the number

And strengthens as I wait through each ring

The payoff, your "hello" in my ear

Yet the ache still remains

Hearing your voice, seeing your picture in my mind's eye

You over there and me over here

Distance separating us

But still we wait through the pain.
