MISSING YOU
There have been numerous things about you
that I have come to miss over all these long months apart …
little things you say or do …
your laugh, your smile, the touch of your hand upon my skin,
your gentle kisses upon my lips as you say I Love You
without saying a word,
the times we fought but made up -
I miss being in your arms
when you would pull me close to you,
your childish demeanor
and your mature knowledge …
your unbridled playfulness and serious side too …
You are in my every thought,
Every breath I take,
Every word I speak,
Every beat of my feeble heart …
Always with me but never really there,
Wanting to touch you again so boldly
Wanting to feel your warm embrace around me,
Hiding what I feel inside from everyone around me
Everyone except for YOU … Hoping you feel the same
And aren't just playing a game …
Missing you being next to me as I sleep at night,
Just knowing you're there ...
Miss awakening to you
Yearning to see your smile, hear your laughter …
Needing to feel your touch upon my skin,
And your gentle kiss upon my lips,
Hearing you say I Love You dear
without ever saying a word …
Yes, I still miss all the little things you say or do
But not nearly as much as I MISS ALL OF YOU …
