Wanting You

My eyes are wanting to see you,
                 but can not,
My ears are wanting to hear you,
                 but can not,
My arms are wanting to hold you,
                 but can not,
My body is wanting to touch you,
                 but can not,
My heart is wanting to love you,
                 but can not,
             I am wanting you,
                 but can not,
My eyes are wanting to see you,
                 now they can,
My ears are wanting to hear you,
                 now they can,
My arms are wanting to hold you,
                 now they can,
My body is wanting to touch you,
                 now it can,
            I am wanting you,
                  now I can.
         We are together at last.
