In the still of the moment, I lie awake. Feeling some of the loneliness of a love not here. Wishing we were together as one. Laughing, playing, running, smiling, teasing. Touching in a teasing way only lover’s know. I miss your touch, your tenderness eludes me. I miss your laughter ringing in my ears. I miss those moments that only we have shared. I cry sadly, salted falling tears. Your absence scars my soul with pining pain. My voice, hoarse from silent screams escapes me. I can only tell you in my mind I love you, I care. Your presence strong in my heart, I love you so. When I first met you, you entranced me with your wisdom. You knew my every thought, my next move, emotion. I speak, you say I know, how can you? I think, you answer before my mouth has said. I hurt, you console me before I have felt the pain. I need you now, will you please come in, come in from my dreams. |

So many wonderful lines in this beautiful piece. Tenderness and longing flow with such grace. Poetic verse nestled in the warmth of my heart, reveals the sweet yearnings of my soul.... |
