I miss you
Like, a lot
But I felt like at times I was in the way
Of you doing better things
Bigger things
I didn't want to mess up
Something that was so good
A friendship that was only good
Because I mess things up
Like, a lot
So I gave you some space
For you to do what you wanted
How you wanted
But now I'm wondering if I messed up
Like, a lot
Because I miss you
Scorpius Jul 2018
Since you left
(for the second time)
Every door closing,
Shower running,
Or clank,
Or shuffle,
Or creak,
Brings my heart
To attention
Ready
To welcome you home.

Your stripy jumper will have to do,
but please know my heart will be searching for you.
Out on her voyage through the hidden sea of stars.
I hope we cross paths and marry upon mars.
Love

7am - Sun sits up in bed
Her fiery tresses stretch beyond my vision
And she yawns across the globe
Giving all else a lead to follow in her glowing shadow
The most delicate, wavy lock
Sways and dances like a pianist
She strikes the keys of my heart strings until my fingertips
Creep to the warm surface of the window
Where I can feel her so near to me -
But I'm restricted
Prevented from this lust
Oh it's not new to me
My skin prickles in sweat as my desire to touch overcomes me

But he's right there.
Walking the length of my thigh
Where his fingers curl inward beneath the bend of my knee
His gentle squeeze unlocks the feeling
Of what I imagine touching Sun would be
An exchange of heat between two bodies
When they meet
A mastery of intimacy swimming in my veins
Coursing through me and suddenly
I'm engulfed with his scent -
A simmering brew of chestnut and vanilla
With a twinge of sour
The taste of fresh bitterness and ground beans
His caffeine is the river I float in for about a 3 hour drive
As Sun gazes from behind this window that we share -
She rises silently and strides away in jealousy
While the stinging heat of her lust
Beats away at the window
Desperately trying to touch me.

A long time waiting,
Waiting for sweet love,
Love to come home and restore my Soul,

Wishing alone, through bitterly cold nights,
Looking for your Soul, looking for a passage home,
Flying among the stars, hoping for dreams to come true,

Listening for your heart, lightly beating, in a flowing stream,
Like a warm breeze, gently kissing my cheek,
Is that you love?

Wondering how long,
Your spirit will be staying,
Wondering when this dream will be leaving?

She Flies Away

Cherishing my sunset dreams,
Dreams, of times past,
Dreams, of an adorable Angel,

Seeing,

An Angel dancing in the moonlight,
Twinkling stars, in her eyes,
A heart, bright and warm as sunshine,

Lips tasting, so sweet,
Like milk chocolate hearts,
A dazzling glow around her,

Such beauty, such love she gives,

Wishing dawn would never come.

As another sad day begins,
Asking her, please stay,
Tears flow fast, as she flies away.

Even though you’re long gone,
And I’m stuck in my head,
Trying to move on.
I still think of you,
And I still miss you.
I’m still waiting, but you haven’t come.
I’ve slowly started to realize...
That you’re not coming.
And that this is where it all comes to an end.
I miss you, I miss you.
I’m sorry once again...
Goodbye.
If you miss someone... I guess this is the poem for you?¿
Jamilla Jun 2018
Its been months,
Since we've lost you.
Its been a week,
Since I last saw you.
And its been an hour,
Since I last felt your presence.
Inked Quill Jun 2018
I try to forget you
Yet your name
Keeps propping up
Like blooming darkness
In my feeble mind
Upon my pillow covers
Under my sheets
Looming to draw me in
Weakened by your absence
I’m convincing myself
You’ll be back
My evening kisses
& morning lust
