You I Miss

Days stretch into each other,

Soon a month topples another.

Then years crowd before I know it.

You I miss.

 

Memories assault my mind in droves,

As on and on they go.

A beam of light in shadows of grey,

As tears assault my face.

 

When sadness fills my heart

I can’t help but wonder just where you are.

Though I know you’re in a better place,

In my heart is where you stay.

Feeling lonely and blue,

I’m forced to live without you. 

You were the truth to my wish…

You I miss.

 

Come… come to me

In beautiful dreams.

For it’s you I want to see…

Me with you and you with me.

 

Time with you

Was ever true.

You I cherish…

You I miss.

Beautiful story in the poem with a perfect ending.
"Time with you
Was ever true.
You I cherish…
You I miss."
Thank you Melinda for sharing the excellent poetry.

You are welcome Melinda.

We choose who is present
It seldom is a physical presence
That is the weakest form

We embrace people we love
through distance and time
and that is beautiful like your beautiful poem :)

Lovely piece and written so well Melinda. I know I'm glad we have memories and dreams to visit the people we miss so much. This was a really good expression of the love you have for this person.

Melinda, You sent me a friend request; when I get one I like to visit the page of the person with the request. This piece you've written is a very tender tribute to a loved one whom you have seen leave your life, sorely missed and forever loved. A very tender, moving piece. Very well written! I am gladly accepting your request but I must ask a small favor. Due to limited time and high volume of friends I sometimes have a lot of trouble keeping up with my reviewing responsibilities. But if you have something you'd like me to review, please send a read request. That will guarantee 100% that it WILL be reviewed. Deal? Nice to meet you, always nice to garner a new friend. take care...dan
