Warning: I haven't written poetry in so long I'm not sure this attempt will be a pretty one. Proceed at your own risk. :)
While I wait
I think back and remember
The way your hands enveloped mine;
Always as if my fingers were petals fragile.
While I wait
I hope you think of me too
When the skies open up with melancholy showers.
A snuggle under the covers!
While I wait
I hope you have moved on,
Made your peace with your inner demons,
And are not afraid of Life any more.
While I wait
I hope you haven't moved on
From thoughts of me and all our bittersweet memories.
Would that make me narcissistic or simply selfish?
While I wait
I will myself to be all-giving
As you were in another life,
Letting me fly while you wallowed in misery.
While I wait, I pine.
