"Finally Feel Complete"

16 hours straight of sleep
and no imagening of you;
you fail to colorfie
the dreary world of my dreamless sleep.
Oh why?      Oh why?
Because then I'd be complete.
For I carry you within my heart
every hour, every day.
I put my arms around you
yet all I feel is air.

What you are is beautiful
and what you are is all to me.
Oh won't you rest here in my arms
and let our hearts beat as one, and us
to finally feel complete?

Something's missing when you're gone,
my heart is beating such a restless tune.
My companion who will listen to all
my senseless jargon and make me feel complete.
The future falls before our feet, giving
us pause wile revving us to sped.
Want to run away with you.
Won't you run away,
leaving the world with an upside
down little bird.

What you are is beautiful
and what you are is all to me.
Oh won't you rest here in my arms
and let our hearts beat as one, and us
to finally feel complete?

I reach for the dreams I have
when I'm awake.
Want to have you here with me,
filling the empty seat.
Give this world a big good-bye,
and drive off into the heat,
and finally feel complete.
Oh why, oh why
why can't it just be you and I?

What you are is beautiful
and what you are is all to me.
Oh won't you rest here in my arms
and let our hearts beat as one, and us
to finally feel complete....
Won't you rest...
Won't we finally feel complete...

PoetryIsLife,

The little pang I feel when I read this goes straight to my heart.  Longing is so hard sometimes.  Thank you for sharing your wonderful poem.

Someday we will all be sitting in Starbucks talking about the past. On your finger will be a band to remind you that it was all worth it.
