I have learned that no matter
how many times I say 'I miss you',
you can't come home any sooner.

I probably should've warned
you to stay away from me.
I knew I'd fall in love with you
the minute I set eyes on you.
There was no hope for
this sorry heart.

If love is a game,
then someone will
be the winner and
someone will be
the loser.
A tie game?
Now that's love.

and one day I marched
right up to your front door
and took back what was
rightfully mine.
Silly you, stood in a state
of shock as you held out your
hand, dripping with blood from
the ***** that I gently placed back
into my chest.

How can I rid of this ache?
I long to hold you.
I long to have you near.
I need you.
****.

When all of my words
are stuck inside,
I wish my tears could write
the poems that long to be free.

If they could be the ink
to my paper,
maybe my mind wouldn't
be so ready to sink.

I miss you so much,
it physically pains me
to not be able to talk to you.

It is as if an astronaut came along
and snatched all of the stars out of
the night sky, and the moon
is left to weep and cry.

It is as if the fisherman caught
all the fish in the sea,
and the ocean's only purpose
left is to wash up on the beach.

It is as if a lumberjack took an axe
to each tree,
and the earth can no longer breathe.

The beauty taken selfishly to be enjoyed,
leaves the viewer endlessly craving it's return.


I miss you,
come back to me,
I'll be here waiting,
painfully, patiently for you to come home.
