Yes, I Still Miss You

For someone, come what may.

The truth only sets

When the silence comes

In the space when I am alone

You flood every single void that surrounds

Each time the power of remembrance increases

I remember how much I love you still

I remember how much I miss you still

The hurt tells me I should never have left you

Then I know that all that hate
Then I know that all that pain

Can only survive because of love

Or I just simply would not care

I KNOW WHAT THIS FEELS LIKE. Another relatable piece. When things like this happen, and a person leaves a chapter of my life I feel like theres a hole I need to mend in my tightly sewn quilt of life.

Oh, how truthful this is, and how painful it is to remember those who are gone in the void of silence.

I think one thing that all humans strive for besides happiness and contentment, is love. It is one thing that is sought, tried to be cured, forgotten, trodden on, idolized, etc. We fear it, we want it, we need it. And when that fear is totally gone (we fear love because of the pain that seems to chase it) then our love is wholesome and pure and what is better than that? A love for someone to share with. It can be a pure emotion with such happiness that it just builds up and up, bubbling to the surface, up to our mouths where we laugh such a happy laugh that those who hear, are astonished.
it can be happiness.
but it can also bring the pain of missing someone entirely too much. The ache, the tears, the longing.... too much and we wish that we are all too strong to feel these... but it makes us all the more stronger. Sorry... I think I write entirely to much, and go on such dreadful tangents... :/

Amazing job, marvelous write...

Poets aspire to inspire, so its my privilege to see you go on a tangent. I think I would sacrifice almost anything in my life today to love and be loved in return. I have traveled the world and lived a blessed life but to have done so with just one pair of eyes is nothing but a shame. This led to one of my fav ever created lines ' If the eyes are a window to the soul then I am half blind, for the true beauty of the world can only been seen when shared. I think you have read that line and seen I write about love quite a lot, I just try to not write all soppy and silly as love is not a wet wipe for a messy heart its a bloomin tsunami that sweeps away an entire region! x Thank you once again for blessing me with your time and attention, it means so much. x

Hmmm, that is a noble sacrifice to make, in order to love and be loved. Though I'd have to be a bit more specific and ask for an unconditional love on both sides. In my short life, I haven't done much to see the world, but again, I can say I have seen it all (most of it haha) which is enough of the world for me to see. LOL. And yes, that is quite the amazing line. Someday you'll have people quoting you :D You don't write all soppy and silly, else I wouldn't have really made the entire effort to read and review and go on silly silly tangents. I tend to not quite like soppy love poems and stories. Blech. But this was thoughtful and emotional, and overall, very relatable.
"love is not a wet wipe for a messy heart, its a blooming tsunami that sweeps away an entire region!"
(Another good line!) Isn't that the truth. Sadly, a lot of people see it all wrong.
Anyways, I wish you all the best in finding that one to share the beauty of the world with. Best wishes! And no problem, anytime I'd be glad to read and comment :)
