Missing You

The days grow long without you here 

I wish you were next to me

I'd whisper in your ear

"Oh how I love you"

"I never want this to end"

And maybe my dreams would still be true

I remember, before you left me

You were sure that this could last

You and me could be we

And I trusted you

From that day until now

I have been stuck to you like glue

Sometimes I wish we had never met

But when I think back I know

It was for the best, yet

I learned much from you

When you left, I understood

The things I never thought I knew

You taught me to be confident

You taught me to love myself

Your love was evident

But I no longer need you

Contrary to my belief

By myself, I could make it through

It's sad when relationships which looked promising, come to an end. We do learn from them though and we do retain the good memories. I enjoyed the rhyme scheme in your writing and your lines flowed with ease. Nicely conveyed.

We live and we learn through others touching our lives, and even when we becomes two singulars again, their echoes still resonate within us. One day we will be grateful for their touch, once the pain departs. We make it, we need to.

Such sweet, painful longing. Even though life hurts at times, it's important to learn and move on, even if you can't forget.

Yes, I absolutely agree. Thank you for reading, Clifford.
