Parted From You...

feeling blue... missing my love.

Burning eyes, lack of sleep,

Stepped of the plane mere hours ago

Endless flight, seemed like a life itself

Mutual strangers in a flying world

 

My thoughts flew back to you, such sorrow

Missing you immediately, before letting you go

Unbearable heartache from the parting

Fighting my tears, losing the war

 

Stepped thru the check-in, pulled back to you

My soul was divided, my heart too

Time to part, it came too soon

Know you better, love you more

 

Hour by hour, mile by mile,

Pacific Ocean, You’re miles away,

Tears come swiftly, on thoughts of you

Suppressed till later, then give way

 

Home, finally, exhaustion pales

Next to my memories and loneliness

Home seems alien, not real, no more

Come home soon babe, can’t miss you more….

Beautiful poem, mi love! I became a bit misty reading it (I'm sure it was dust in my eyes of course). I miss you too and I'll be crossing that ocean very shortly. xxx

Oh, someone has got it bad. Hearts are aching---surely there's a solution on the horizon. Love conquers all, remember.
