Twisting, turning, downward drifting,
Parts of me through time are sifting,
While I wish you were with me,
Ending this waiting agony.

You've been gone so long so far away
Though I dream about you every day.
I cry to you to no avail,
For you cannot hear my mournful wail.

Dried and decayed like a winsome reed
Neglected from the waters to feed,
For without you I'm without rain
Never finding solace from my pain.

My flesh it blisters from the heat
Rotting, decaying, dying meat,
For dying I am without your rain
Heatstroked, drying, parched with pain.

Come back and free my wilting heart,
Free my limbs, water my parts.
Help me end this endless pain,
Quench my thirst with your loving rain.

This aches in the worst way....

Painfully expressive poetry,
but life goes on,   nevertheless.
Take care RS~
