Longing..


I don't know,
Why I miss you so....

A longing that is too painful..
I dream of you too often
to believe your absence

Tears defeat me frequently,
I know you are nowhere in my life
Yet I await YOU...

The moments of togetherness
are still too fresh
and it hurts that I can only see them
through my mind's eye
And too hard to believe that they are
No longer, A Reality!!!
