I Miss You So

Your voice was gone yet lingered still your charms,
As well they must to soothe the searing ache
This empty bed and worse these empty arms,
Impress upon a heart about to break.

Too few the stolen moments we enjoy
When no one may intrude upon our bliss,
Too many then the hours we must employ
In dreams of one embrace or one sweet kiss.

Return and taste the pleasures we alone
In honest open trust may feast upon
And rest beneath a blanket of our own
Unselfish love until the break of dawn.

The nights are long without you by my side,
Return to me, and for a time, abide.

Absolutely beautiful words of love and romance here David.

Take care.......Sue

I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

it's one of the most awful feelings in the world to desire someone in your arms and have them away...

absolutely beautiful

Ya know what they say.  Curiosity salted the snail.

Sure know this feeling,
your writing grabs the heart!

well, you've gotta be perfect, cause you own the same name as my son...which means the beloved...for here the proof lives...within your words...and tender heart, you own a great and lasting gift.
