Missing You

A Poem

Missing You

I’ll miss you more than you’ll ever know

Sitting here

Trying to reconcile

How you look at me with love

But your words

Make me feel reviled

Memories that will be cherished

But have to be filed away

Perhaps for a better day

I’ll miss you more than you’ll ever know

More than either of us will ever show

The way you looked at me

On that misty morning

Your eyes locked on mine

Mine on yours

I felt the wave crash around me

Locked in a bubble of time

Wondering

Was it all in my mind

Did you feel it too?

But I knew

I would get what I asked for

More time with you

The time we were missing

From a previous parallel life

Feeling each others pain

Feeling each others strife

Filling each other

With the best of parts of our life

Sitting here

Filled with regret

For getting what I asked for

Our lives

Intertwined

Now and forever

For all time

Not deja vu

But something we both know is true

There is no god

But Chaos

The chaos of the universe

That brought me back to you

The dream of my memories

With you

    Eric, this was too sad!!! Left some love!!!♥️♥️💕

  • That inner struggle with no hope of overcoming, of eyes that want fighting with words designed to drive away. The utter hopelessness of longing, "I will miss you."
