at times
I imagine
such a love storm
touching you
just reaching out
caressing you
kissing your face
like I used to do
now forlorn
I so miss your kisses
delicious moments
precious memories
looking deeply
mesmerized
by your entrancing eyes
searching and finding
witnessing living love
thriving there
feeling that you
truly cared
I surrendered
this torn heart
of mine
wanting feelings
expectant of
each tender part
enduring
each rendered hurt
yet love's familiar arrows
painfully continue
pierce my erring heart
still my caring soul
I'll die knowing
this mysterious love
is final
your deep love
made me whole
