to grope
To grope for a touch that isn’t there
Is a very Irritating feeling to the mind
How long before you light your love upon me
I am searching in thick fog, and darkness
To use the hand to try to feel
Something in utter opaque; seems very absurd
But I have a little hope, I wave hands
Hoping that someday I will feel you
When is the time that love is a light
When are my eyes finally to find
The beauty that I behold in mist
For my hands have lost fervent faith
