you

you are not here yet
but you have been here for so long,
you exist already in our thoughts and our hopes,
it is just a matter of bringing you into the physical world.

you are not here and yet
we think of you every day, from your two separate pieces
to your miraculous whole, your dividing self

you are not here and yet
you are already loved
we are waiting for you

you are not here and yet
our world revolves around you,
you are so wanted

you are not here, and yet
if we could reach in and put you together, we would.
and so we will try, because this envelope of love,
that is mixed with want and hope
happiness, laughter,
and bound by heartache
that we have created, is ready and open
for you
