I'll Be Seeing You

This is my final goodbye for you.

No more moonless nights awake or

Anticipating hollow greetings and a yearning kiss

Or broken hearts doodled against your written name

Tonight I watch the stars and know you can’t see them

The city lights blur the to-be wishes

And the moon that rules us both illuminates this departure

Its appearance as startling as the distant call of thunder

My fingers are shattered after holding onto you for so long

But now released, they can mend and mold with my returned heart

Your love will not be my last, but my everlasting first

These tears I once cried are not the poison of my trust

Yet they are the remedy.

The world isn’t so scary now that I’ve lived it

This journey has found its purpose in me

Like the ocean and the sky, we’ll meet at the horizon, miles away

Until then, you’ll find me here again, my fingers gently laced together

While not as soothing as your palm against mine,

It keeps me from floating into nothing in this dying misery

I’ll think of you always and pray you’ll discover everything you hope for

If we ever meet again I hope you remember like a blizzard in July

My laugh as your fingertips roll over my sides

My eyes that almost match yours perfectly

My smile as I kiss yours, having to stand on my tippy-toes to reach you

My love intertwined in your racing heartbeat…

I hope it returns with a vengeance, a rush of heroin

Bursting colors, like the ones I see now, reminiscing over our adventure

But now it’s time to leave, after all these years,

And these feelings will be locked away in my windowsill music box

Waiting for another rainy night

Like those where you found me as company and security

Goodbye, darling, I’ll be seeing you in my stormy dreams…

[The Nameless]

Beautiful poem full of emotions. You tell it in such a beautiful way.
Your metaphors and similes just add to your wonderful descriptions.

You can try to put a bit more rhyme and rhythm into the poem.
Also, you can separate the writing into stanzas, as you introduce new ideas.
Right now, this seems a bit more like a story than poetry.
Though Free Verse and Free Style poetry doesn't have much rhyme and rhythm either.

But these are optional, as you can choose your own style of writing.

Good luck and continue to write =D
