I Miss you

I MISS YOU

Yell at me if you must
Shout at me if you will
Swear at me all you care
Snarl, bite, scratch and do all sorts
But whatever you do
Mend my fractured dream
Suture my tattered heart.

Whatever you do
The memories live to tell the tale
The morning dew with mornings of glory
The mist dissipating with the tears I felt
Streaming down my cheeks as we fought anew

The soft sound of laughter that soothes an aching heart
The melodic voice that heals a wounded soul
The kindly word that comforts a broken heart
Yes indeed, a lady at par with nature herself

The kiss that heralds the passion
That at the mention of your name my heart flutters
Each can tell at once I am flustered
I cease to call your name in my dreams
For am seized with pain when I recall
The joy and laughter that you were

My soul is not at peace for missing you
And this is no contest with fate
All I do is done by faith
That alone with no haste
As I stand in awe am chaste
I feel the weight in my chest

The fleeting kiss of times well spent
The lovely memories that harass my kind
And all those of similar mind
Tormented men of my ilk
Demented now for lack of love

I prowl the streets for you day and night
I pine for the light in your eyes
The smile in your eyes that dissipates like dew
Yet bestowed on me and the lucky few
In your absence, my love for you has grown.
Find it in you to forgive my excesses
Forgiveness is the fragrance the flower bestows
On the heel that crushes it
I miss you my love
