Following Her

Fingertips brush away stray hairs, arms are secure around her shoulders
He watches her, like her own dearest angel
While he sleeps on the other side of the world, his sleeping seconds belong to her
He wants her to claim him, sending living hints in his waking words
She puts to clues together but doubts their reality
Frustrated sighs in the sun and under the clouds
Their separate reasons are close to the same revelation
They are each other, connected by unseen fibers stretching
Threatening to snap them together
He draws the curve of her smile in his mind, the shine in her eyes
She tries to taste him around her, not quite failing nor quite succeeding
Clueless wandering, orbiting around her
Hysteria rising in his throat, he screams against her skin
Cries into her neck, she only feels the memory of whispers
Locking his eyes on her face, he steps back to reality
Dreaming of when she'll join him there

it's a good poem, I give it a 9/10, but I did not like it much. Just not my cup of tea.

I'm guessing it's about a long-distance relationship.
Some of the lines in this poem seemed unnecessary. I couldn't quite figure out what exactly what they were trying to convey.

Line 6: Frustrated sighs in the sun and under the clouds
Line 11: Clueless wandering, orbiting around her

I'm not sure what these lines are supposed to mean. I think a little too much of the poem was stuck in metaphor, making it kind of hard to get a feeling for what is happening.
