Aching For You

Aching For You

I find myself walking out in the open.

The sky goes dark,

and the rain comes,

covering me as my heart pounds in my eardrums.

I begin to feel a pain,

my hands start to ache for yours to hold.

My skin screams for your touch of old,

when all was good with us.

My feet are sore from walking toward you and

my legs start to buckle wanting to be held by you.

Our days together were all to few.

My eyes are tired and worn, just looking for your warm face

as my lips cry out for your kiss, at our secret place.

We were so happy then.

My mind is numbing, constantly asking where did you go?

Please tell me I want to know!

Why has it become like this?

With this pain still griping me, I come to this place,

my heart still breaking for your wonderful warm embrace.

I want to be with you!

My soul tares apart, as if a crucial part is missing,

and my Spirit pray’s out loud for you to hear me and

feel my pain.

I’m wandering, do you feel this too?

Do you feel me missing you?

How I miss your hand entangled in mine.

How long has it been since I have felt you,

since I last heard your voice?

Too long.

I’m coming apart at the seams.

All life is unraveling, it’s like life has no meaning.

Now I have this feeling, will I ever see you again?

As the rain comes down,

hits the ground, my tears start to blend with it.

And the pain overtakes me.

Soon my body is one, with the surroundings about me.

As my hands begin to reach out for you,

the rain and I become one,

and I cry over you, each drop saying quietly,

“I love you…”
