For far too long we’ve been apart,
The ills of winter chill my heart,
My love for you is all I know,
I think of you, I miss you so.
I know I chose to walk away,
The hurt still lingers to this day,
The way things were with all the strife,
Our feelings numbed, it was no life.
Every crisis strained the bonds we shared,
My pleas for change were never heard,
We tried in vain to keep our love alive,
While the flame of passion suffocated inside.
Deep within, anguish makes my heart ache,
How much more of this torment can I take?
For I have no purpose, I see no sense,
The void within me is so immense.
So….
Why write this poem? Why should it rhyme?
When my life’s in upheaval after all this time,
Because….
My love for you is all I know,
I think of you, I miss you so.
