It's only when
the lights go out
that I miss you at all

The daylight offers
enough distractions
to push me through

The glow of moon
of screen or lamp
hold little solace

They only postpone
the enevitable darkness
and empty bed

That await me
time and time again

yeah...until there isn't enough in the day to distract you, there isn't enough to stop the thoughts....*hugs*

There's a new guy over in the Teen forum who has a wordstrong, introspective style and a no-holds-barred attitude....I sent him links to this and one other of your poems, just to let him know there are others like him here, including some of PIP's best.
