While I'm Still Missing You
~*Marge Tindal*~

Sleepless nights come and go
Moments tossed without recall
Never do you cross my mind
Well, almost, never at all

Sometimes though I wonder
when the night is tossing me asunder
Who's been kissing you
while I'm still missing you

You know my friend, I think of you in the night sometimes and in those thoughts I am wishing for you a peaceful and loving slumber.  Wonderful write from you and I JUST hate it when those nights keep me from sleep, don't you?  Well, maybe not entirely, but a good nights sleep would be nice once in awhile.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.

Your sighs are appreciated.
I can see how hard you've worked on your web site.

Sometimes, I know it is meant to touch someone -
I just don't always know who.
Glad always to share with you.

Thanks, hon.
You've been missed.  Good to see you.
I agree - and I just might have to expand this one.
I'll let you know if and when I do.

MarkB~
Hello, love.
So - the two of us maintaining those night thoughts, huh ?
Reaching out - touching hearts.
You sleep, love - I'll keep the watch.
Love you.

In so many simple words you summed up everything I think and feel and wonder
Excellent write from you, i enjoyed it so much

I feel the longing.  So distant, but yet so sweet.  Wonderful.

Oh Marge, why did I have to go and get a full time job, I want nothing more than to read and reply to poetry all day long!  This read like a song.....more!  more!

What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life.
