Seeing You Again

Once again I see you...
     so alive with energy -
  Your spirit shining like diamonds
     in your eyes,
Your hair falling in unruly waves
     over your ears and shoulders...
       leaving the face I love so much exposed
   for all to see and remember...
and, that I do.

Seeing you again...
     brings back warm memories;
   The day we met, your laugh-
     your voice, your touch-
       so warm, reassuring and safe.
      God, how I missed that.

Seeing you again...
     I can remember all the times we laughed.
       I can taste again the tears of our
      bittersweet love....you know
    it could've last forever.

I used to wonder...
   if you knew what I was doing-
  and if you saw my pain when you
               so abruptly left.
I was angry -
   I've forgiven you now...
I never could stay mad at you.
For so long I have been trying
    to wish you back to life...
        and now I have-
          even if it's just...
in a photograph.

This one moved me to tears. It's hard to let someone go. Trust me, I know all too well. It's even harder to let them go when you know or feel they should still be in your life! I can relate to the feelings and emotions expressed in this poem. Thank you so much for sharing..

 You're going to hear my voice in the morning calling your name
And know my love and my desperation were one and the same...
Baby it's alright...
Take this pain and all this sadness
It's alright
Take this rain
You're going to be free...
Jackson Browne
*I love you baby*
