Anticipation Poem by Saturday Chikezie Promise

It would be nearly impossible to explore in depth,
And explain to you the way I feel with each passing day.
All I know is that it grows stronger with each passing breath
It doesn't matter the distance - the inches between us feel too far away.

There was a time in my life when I knew not what to do
And searched constantly, aimlessly for something, anything to fill
And occupy this harrowing gap, until the day I met you -
Your toxic kisses, I rely on like some addicting pill.

There may never be another chance to get back what we've lost
Nor another opportunity for me to get close to you
All I know is I want to have you around, regardless of cost
I don't care how much anticipation my restless lips must go through.

Although it will never be clear, and it never will be easy
There's too much between us to just
