Missing a loved one.

Image by Elmo Alves via Flickr

I cannot get you out of my mind,

you haunt me both day and night.

I remember every moment with you,

to my life you brought much delight.

One day you suddenly disappeared,

our time together came to an end.

I thought we would never be apart,

you were more than just a friend.

I miss your gentle but sensual kiss,

the caress of your large brown hands.

I miss your fingers touching my hair,

lightly stroking the soft silky strands.

I crave your body pressed to mine,

while holding me in a warm embrace.

I wish you were here next to me,

I miss your handsome smiling face.

My heart is shattered and broken.

Why did you have to go away?

I need you back here in my arms.

When will you return home to stay?
