You are gone but not gone
Out of my physical world
but, come alive in my consciousness
every moment I see
something from your world

You ask me to forget,
Yet, you reach out
How do I behave
as though you are a drop in an ocean
while you are
the precious pearl I have ever known
the pain of this part is unbearable
even more when
you ask me to treat you unknown

Without you, it is not the same
Food tastes stale, Moments seem pale
My eyes are searching Unbeknown
When I so surely know you won’t be shown
I imagine you coming along
Those days, they were like a song

Love so intense, could not have been expressed,
Realized it only when I missed
I was so lost in your eyes with no cares of time
Your beautiful light brown eyes peers into mine
As if you want to rip my Self apart and enter my soul
At that moment I feel we are united beyond the physical realm
As if your soul is descending upon mine
Two become one, Beyond the measures of space and time!

The rain is pouring out of my soul
The roaring thunder left me cold
The blaring lightening is indeed bold
A sad story of a lady behold!
O Lord of the magnificent world
Please give us thy blessing tenfold

I watch the time come and go
each tock on the clock
my heart sinks deep
like a rock in the river
I poke at my dinner
like a dead rat on the street
and then I retreat to my room
feeling sappy and sorry
and for this I don’t know
I’m supposed to be peachy
but my heart is greedy
a feeling I wish I could outgrow
my mind is somewhere else
it’s by the creek running around
just feet on the grass, on the dirt, in a tree
but I’m here
not in the somewhere I want to be.

Wait for me.

I will make it worth your while.

I dream of you

Your face lit with the afternoon sun

Coming into my arms

Smelling of freshness and wonder

To hold your hair in my hands
To taste your lips once again

Wait for me.

My darling.

Please.
Wait.

Under the cover of the darkest of nights,
I feel safest within your embrace,
You tell me you love me despite all the fights,
But secretly you've packed your case.

Doesn't your heart even want to try?
I know I've not always been kind,
but now I'm alone and all I do is cry,
Why have you left me behind?

Months have now passed and I've had time to think,
I don't know why I was so bitter,
Now that my heart has been pushed to the brink,
I'm anything but a quitter.

The time wasn't right in the heat of the pain,
Though now I feel I must express,
I'd do anything to feel your love again,
Wrapped in your gentle caress.

Change is a thing we all must go through,
We all must learn from our mistakes,
Can we start from somewhere new?
Before my poor heart breaks.

I saw lies
Behind your smile
And truth
Behind your eyes
The ones that sparkled
Now lost their light
And a wry heart
Withered under the weight.
