This Is For You

This Is For You

A Poem by James Takeo Panton
"

My longing and love wax poetically.......

"

 

I miss her....
 

I miss her sighing laugh
I miss her gentle smile
I miss her walk
I miss her talk
I miss those secret, undisclosed moments without words that are full of meaning
I miss the way she smells, at the nape of her neck when she sleeps beside me
I miss the way her forms and contours gather closely to me
I miss the silly conversations about nothing
I miss the idle times beside her
I miss the gentle touch of her hand upon me

 

I wish I could be her everything
Her Superman
Her Romeo
Her Hero
I wish I could pluck the stars from the sky and shower her with them
I wish I could move the mountains and the earth for her
I wish I could pull down the moon for her
I wish I could give her all that is and all that will ever be

 

And all I can give her
Is me.....

 

Everything I have come to believe
(That love conquer ALL
Is now the time for it to be proven to me, the sceptic that I am?
Shall I prove this to her?
Shall I prove this to myself?)

 

What am I with all this?
It is all just stuff, it means nothing......
What am I
Without her?

 

I LOVE HER
WITH ALL MY HEART
ALL I KNOW, IS THE ONLY THINGS THAT HAVE NEVER EVER MISLED ME
WERE MY FEELINGS

 

 

(now i sit here alone and think: now what do i do?)

In this stanza, it seems that you forgot to put "I" :

What am " I " with all this?
It is all just stuff, it means nothing......
What am I
Without her?

I WISH ---I were her....

Great write.

i like that the feeling youre atriculating is actually pretty complicated but you expressed it so simply and it works.

This is a very touching piece. It seems a bit nostalgic. I like the flow of it, going from I wish, I wish, I wish to I miss. It really works good into the overall theme of the work. Great job!
