In Anticipation
The thought of a vacation, before you’re there
The anticipation of a call before it’s made
The thrill at the very top of a roller coaster before you plummet
The contentment you feel when the house is clean and beds are made
A light brisk walk in the moonlight
A wave finally crashing to the shore
A light that shines in my room at night
Knowing that there will be something more
The breeze coming up to fill you lungs with fresh air
Leaves falling as if being released and free
Rain dripping softly in your hair
This is what you bring to me
