I have this overwhelming feeling
A loneliness I can’t escape
Long days, with thoughts of you
I’m falling in love with you again
I don’t know if you will ever know
How it is to have someone forever in your thoughts
You consume my existence
As my heart cries out, hoping you will hear
Morning hues, a sunrise that brings me light
Remind me of you, your palette of choice
Your brushstrokes upon the canvas
Tells the tale of your heart
Can you feel,
The warmth of my heart?
How it beats for you?
The longing that is deeply engraved upon it?
I am so very lonely
Yet my feelings remain unchanged
An overflowing cup that never empties
As I fall in love with you, again, every day anew
The sun sets, the night sky
Your darkened palette
Brushstrokes painted by the pale moonlight
As the end grows near for the long day
You are So Far Away
My feelings are eternal, never letting go
As I wake every morning to your colors
As I retire every evening to darkened skies
My heart yearns for thee
Unchanged feelings
Can you feel my love across this distance?
The quantum entanglement of our souls?
I have fallen in love with you, every day
A year of longing
Ten months of love-filled thoughts
So far away, but always in my heart

Ten months of love-filled thoughts
So far away, but always in my heart
I wrote this during the holidays, being away from the one I love. Trying to cope with the loneliness, the longing, and yearning of my heart. Love sometimes can consume you, and in the silence of the distance, sometimes clarity eludes you.
