I feel you on my face by Cori MacNaughton

Jun 2015

I feel you on my face
I taste you on the wind
I labor while I long for you
My most beloved friend

So long since you've been gone
Yet feel I the pain as much
And counting days as happenstance
Await your spirit touch

My fear profound yet plain
That I will never know
A love the like I had with you
The will to let you go

I wrote this a year and a half prior to meeting my current husband - who proved to me that lightning can, indeed, strike twice. ;-)

I have read this in public but this is the first time it appears in print.
