Finally We Meet Again

Please, hold me my love.

I waited the entire day to see you.

The day was anything but short or fast.

Some may find it sad but it is very true.

I didn’t want this painful day to last.

I am excited for your warm embrace.

For it has been too long since we last met.

I spent all day in a small boring space.

But as an adult it is what I get.

The comfort of your hug makes me calm down.

I want to be together forever.

Sadly we can’t so I’m stuck with a frown.

Though it’s better than seeing you never.

How I have missed you my wonderful bed.

When you are not around I fill with dread.

It's only the truth.

I loved the twist of this poem's ending! From a technical standpoint, the meter of this is very rough for a sonnet. Perhaps the feminine ending of the first line threw you off; I would suggest something like
"I waited the entire day to see
The end of hour's movements holding fast."
(I know this changes the rhyme scheme, but I wanted to show you an example of a better rhythm.) Another thing to watch for, and it's hard to do sometimes, is repeating the same Word over and over. For instance, you used the word day three times in the first quatrain.

I think this could be a very good sonnet if you took the time to rework it.
