Love Missed

My heart so full, it will burst, explode,

My nerves, on fire, so exposed,

My tears, they run free for you,

My blood, it burns, scorching though,

My soul dies when you are gone,

My dreams fill all nights so long,

My body yearns, begs and craves,

My thoughts, so very depraved,

It is with every step I make,

Every moment spent awake,

And the very breath that I take,

That my love for you is being told,

It is only your precious body, I want to hold.

Your smell, your taste, sustain me.

Your hope, your dreams, provoke me,

Your arms, your love, fulfill me.

You are my life lived and lost.

So many new heights, you have taken me,

Why now, have you forsaken me?

Emptiness, loss, grief, this the testament of my love,

Joy, happiness, futile and forgotten,

You face four walls, bars, danger.

Yet it is I that is left,

Crying, staring out a window, you don’t have.
