I didn't want to leave
but I had no choice
a couple hugs
a longing glance
and I leave
without a chance
I can still hear your voice
I'm home now, alone
but I never really left it seems
You're still here
    in my arms
    in the rain
    in the night
    in my dreams
here I'm not alone
I trace the lines of your face with my fingers
then run them through your hair
your scent takes over me
this isn't fair
I pull you closer and touch you lips
I can't resist
the rain begins to glow
thunder rolls in the distance
the time is now, I know
our lips meet in a flash of lightining and a thunder clap
Lost in the storm
it's over, I begin to shake
with my arms around your waist
I rest my head in your lap
you stroke my head and make me feel
like I'm the most important man in existance
I grip you tighter and close my eyes
the storm thunders again in the distance
I open my eyes
I am alone
and in my arms, my pillow that
    felt like you
    smelled like you
    sounded like you
as if I heard you speak
it was just a dream that didn't happen tonight
But there is always next week

wow that was really a beautiful poem..one of those moments where i am pretty much speachless so just keep it up.

Now night arrives with her purple legions
Retire now to your tents & to your dreams
Tomorrow we enter the town of my birth
I want to be ready. - JM

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
