Lost In My Mind With You

Lost in my mind I find you.

My tears fall shattering on the floor
Like a jar full of pain
I pick up the pieces
Only to be cut by the memories

and I miss you

The aromatics of your scent
Still enchant the unchanged sheets
As the beauty of your face
Haunt the static of my dreams

and I miss you

I always sat at the door
To hear you sing in the shower
The sound of your voice
Painted the bare walls of my soul

and I miss you

I still see your shadow
Dancing in the sun
Sometimes I lose mine
To find it running after you

and I miss you

People say I'm lost
Giving attention through blank stares
But getting lost in my mind
Is getting lost in you.

WOW - this is an amazing poem. Your use of simile and metaphor are superb here. After I read the opening stanza, I had to re-read it because I liked it so much, and started thinking that nothing could surpass, but I was so wrong. Everything that followed was excellent. Loved it all. :)

Penny, your words inspire me and is the reason I write. So, thank you so much for those kind words! :)
