My Love,
Do you once remember I said I wouldn't forget?
Well I didn't forget.
I can't.
I always thought I'd come back to you,
And one who equaled your love,
Would never cross my path.
I was right.
As I sit here.
Thinking I let you go so long before,
I realize that the slightest hint,
Of word or breath that resembles you,
Makes me weak and longing,
For the distance and time to be shorter.
They all think they have me wrapped up,
When I'm just floating and wishing for you.
Looked for you yesterday.
Remembering the time you mused about,
If I'd know you were you to just pop up.
Tall body,
Iced blue eyes (matching my melting resolve)
I know they'll see this..
My friends..
Thinking I'm insane,
And I know that there will be only one who understands.
My thanks goes out to her.
But..onward.
I am missing you,
And this is one of the moments,
When my fingers reach for the phone,
But stop short of their journey,
Because after so long,
I know not what your life consists of,
And I wouldn't want to shake up your world.
Or at least..
I wouldn't want you shaking up mine.
No more than this minor quake I show now
That is to say,
I miss you.
And I hope you're happy.

and that's all that we can do. . . when it's been too long. . . and the memories just won't let us forget. . .

excellent. . .

it's impossible to say what I felt as I read these words, I understand? Most definitely, the idea of being alone is such sorrow...and to miss someone is the ultimate pain.
