It
seems like its been forever since i saw your face.
But i see you everyday, all the time, any place i close my eyes.
It seems like its been forever since i heard your voice call my name.
But still i hear you every dark and lonely night
like you're an angel watching over me from beyond the skies.
Its been forever since the night you cried yourself to sleep.
But every drop you shed that day still daunts my mind and bores a hole deep
inside.
Its been forever since i heard you laugh or saw you smile.
But just a thought makes me feel alive,and washes away all the pain hidden
inside.
Its been forever since felt your touch against my skin
But every time the wind blows by
It brings back the memory of every touch and every kiss.
Its been forever since i saw the gleam behind your eyes
But still i see it every stary night
Its been forever since we talked and poured out our hearts contents
But every dreamy night we share and shed all the weight we carry inside.
I know it seems like forever since you were alive
But you still live on eternally inside this heart of mine.
An intimate feeling shared here. The incessant use of the phrase "Its been forever" to add a certain cyclic feeling. A bit of a risky thing as it can lead to monothematic and predictable, some will begin reading and very quickly go "Oh, is one of those ones". But it was kept concise and again to share a moment of relations to something that it is not revealed. If it is human or just a presence the narrative tell us that the impact was such that it will live eternally inside.
A sad, distant feeling of a loss of intimacy in this poem.
NOTES: I think this might benefit from breaking some of the lines into two, and setting the poem down in stanzas or couplets. It would give your lines more impact, I think.

"Its been forever since felt your touch against my skin" - you used "i " after every other since... did you leave it out here?
I liked the build and flow...and the end.

A beautiful and poignant write, Angad. And one with which I truly relate. If you have a moment do me the honour of checking this older piece of mine.
