Bittersweet Longing

A Poem by Maleficent

A love letter.

On this day, I miss you
On any other day, I'd echo
Just like how I miss you today
A feeling so intense, burning my
chest as the flames shape your
beautiful face
At least I get to stare at it like this
At least I get to remember you by
missing you so much

⋄---------------✧⋆⋅♡⋅⋆✧---------------⋄

I'm so bored on this day
Uneventful beside the frills and
throes of my imagination, inventing
a land
Where I may see you without a stare
A land where I can hold you without
touch
Where I could kiss you from afar
An angel so heavenly;
You might just be rivalling mine

I'm so lovesick in this life
The future and the past with and
without you there, where I have still
missed you immensely
My body which aches for your
closeness, carries itself with vigor,
but as a husk;
Bringing my soul to yours
Lulling me to peaceful rest on your
unique melodies, plucked by a truly
golden heart

That which I'll protect, to guard from
afar, and nurture from within;
Treasure which follows you with
every step
And that I may trail like a crow to a
crown
You, whom stick out from the rest,
shining with humanity, beckon my
love to you
Until my heart may slip out its cage,
eagerly nestling to your gentle
hands instead

⋄---------------✧⋆⋅♡⋅⋆✧---------------⋄

A pain so voluntary, it's bleeding a
smile on my face; A smile
incomparable to the perfection of
yours
A bullet in your chamber to strike
me, the most enamored victim
you've yet to have
And here I am, yapping, yet happy as
a clam
Ready with this feeling, which
reminds me of how I'll get to see you
again
Light at the end of the tunnel, light
at the end of this sweet sweet
torture
Torture, where I miss you so
immeasurably
