You I Miss

Days stretch into each other,

Soon a month topples another.

Then years crowd before I know it.

You I miss.

 

Memories assault my mind in droves,

As on and on they go.

A beam of light in shadows of grey,

As tears assault my face.

 

When sadness fills my heart

I can’t help but wonder just where you are.

Though I know you’re in a better place,

In my heart is where you stay.

Feeling lonely and blue,

I’m forced to live without you. 

You were the truth to my wish…

You I miss.

 

Come… come to me

In beautiful dreams.

For it’s you I want to see…

Me with you and you with me.

 

Time with you

Was ever true.

You I cherish…

You I miss.

Such a deeply desperate, truly poignant lover's plea to touch the emotions of any real romantic's heart and soul, Melinda, and your skillfully composed, flowing verses, danced and flowed down the page in a crescendo of penetrating fervor for your one and only to come … how can one bear it when they are in such a state of loneliness and yearning angst?

See? This is exactly what excellent poetry does – it absorbs the reader into your moment, involves their mind and emotion until the last word.
An amazing work, Melinda, that I am so grateful you so generously shared … for which I graciously thank you! ⁓ Richard

Loosing someone you love is never easy, but the chance to be with them if only in a dream is irresistible. Beautiful heartfelt words as always Melinda!
