MISSING YOU I miss the way you speak to me. I miss the love you shared. The way you pulled me from the dark When I was sure that no one cared. I miss the glimmer in your eyes, The softness of your touch. And all those little things I need - I know I shouldn't need so much. I miss the way we played together Like two children sharing a dream. The way you always opened me up And set my emotion astream. I miss the soundness of a sleep Cradled in your embrace. I miss the lullaby you sang to me, You fingers lightly brushing my face. The way the world fades away When your soul dances with mine. The way I give you everything, The way you lay it on the line. The way you question where I came from When there's no denying it's true. I am the other half of your soul - Seeking completeness in you. |

Oh Michael... this is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! It brought tears to my eyes... I enjoy your work so very much... Reading your poetry is like watching "Gone With The Wind..." I need a box of kleenex and someone to share the moment with! Thank you for sharing that wonderful talent of yours! ------------------ ~onevoice~ "She looked at her life like lines, never-ending, constantly forming, reforming and bending." |

Michael, I knew there was a soft side to that Dark heart, as soft as the kiss of a razor out of the dark. I trust your Lady sees that as well. ------------------ Pain is life, life is short, I will endure. DreamEvil© |

You have left me speechless....and in awe at the beauty in this - what can I say to even TRY to explain to you how reading this made me feel ? I'll just sit here awhile and think of how lucky I am to be a part of you, in our poetry...I am so honored. ------------------ I beckon you to come...I lure you with my tongue... - poet FemmeFatale |

Micheal, I'm lucky to have found this one... " I am the other half to your soul" I's just how I felt in Souls Lament.Not one of my happier pieces ): either by the way... |

I read this again today, circumstances different, and nearly cry. I can't wait until I have a chance to talk to you....I have so much I'd like to say...okay, so now I'm crying as I sit here....I better go before I drench my keyboard......your words are my sunshine, Michael. ------------------ I beckon you to come...I lure you with my tongue... - poet FemmeFatale |
