Fly Back to Me

A Poem by Alex Epps

Missing your love

It may sound like a cliche but, time really flies
when I'm not there looking into your eyes
Forever dwelling on those now distant goodbyes
But always to cherish these unbreakable ties

The weeks and months now turning to years
Memories of you trigger these irrational fears
Asking myself when I will ever find another
But this is a question for which I have no answer

For I am clouded with all this confusion
Though I realised I was in search of a solution
To a problem that was just my insecure illusion
For now, we are parted only by sea and land

Remembering our love provided my diffusion
For my heart only beats whilst in your hand
I wait for the time you will fly back to me
For on that day, for you, I will drop to one knee
