You

You

A Poem by Kathryn Smith

Hello my someone


Hello my you


She is snuggled in her gold bed


Thinking of you


You


You


You are her favorite thought


Her sunshine and warmth


She thinks of your eyes


Your sweet sweet words


How your body will curl up with hers


Have you ever had a heart hug?


Do you remember the very beginning?


The beginning of it all in the fall?





If she could go back she would


She would've said more


She would repeat that day if she could



The sheets of rain coming down


The first cold


The dread and the frown


Her laptop crashing to the ground




In the blink of an eye


It all turned around


Hello you!


You made winter warmer


The brutal cold was taken away


Music kept her alive


and in the spring you devoured her mind


In the summer you smoldered


Now it is fall again


Here she is


Here you are


1 year of it all



She thinks of you


You and your clothes


Her dress and the joy


  Laughter and humor


Hindsight and dreams


Spring flowers and cups of tea





Green white and gold will meet red white and blue


Are you ready for this?


Are you?  


Are you ready to shout?


You shouldn't worry


She'll like you for you


You are she and she is you





And before she leaves


Before she goes flying away


Before boarding the jet


She will love you


you


you


just you



You

Kathryn, Such a profound expression of love, spanning four seasons. (I got a kick out of the first season mentioned being fall...so many large and vivid things in the course of MY life have happened in the fall for some unknown reason. So this grabbed my attention in a flash.) So many expressions of this robust love, which will eventually be put aside when one hops an airplane flight...getaway?...illustrate a love so deep that it is hoped by the reader that some sort of divine long-distance love will blossom and grow...forever. Just a wonderful write, Kathryn, this is being saved in my library favorites. Thank you for THAT! take care...dan

Beautiful use of words and thoughts. I had to read again.
"She thinks of you
You and your clothes
Her dress and the joy
Laughter and humor
Hindsight and dreams
Spring flowers and cups of tea "
The above lines were my favorite. Create place, flowers and a cup of tea. A perfect place. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

You are welcome.
Kathryn, this was a very heart telling and touching piece. I believe written very well and the structure you displayed and the word choice was stellar. You showed in this piece the love that you have for this person but also the sense of loss and regret. An emotional piece be proud of this piece that you have written.
