Lover (Free verse) by daveslady
Lover
One of the worst days of my life...
That fateful September day
when you packed up the car
and dropped me off.
You acted like it was your duty...
A job that had to get done.
No emotion in your face or voice
While I cried,
and pleaded with you not to leave.
"If we make it though this,
we can make it though anything".
That's what everyone says...
Thatâs all I have to hold on to.
I try to hold my breath,
until the day you came back for me.
Its getting so hard.
Been such a long time.
Will that day never come?
All I want,
is to run into you arms.
never let me go,
never again.
You are like a drug to me.
I need you every waking moment.
And even when I sleep,
I move around until I find your body,
pinning you to the wall,
until you wake up and cuddle me.
I miss your eyes,
your face
your warm embrace
and gentle kiss
I miss your heartbeat
Itâs a sound so soothing.
Only God could create a sound like that.
It calms me
...makes me cry sometimes
because of its beauty.
There are no words to express
how much you mean to me.
No actions to convey my love.
The words "I love you" just arenât enough.
Making love to you still doesn't express
how much I love you.
Having your children...
Watching you play with them...
It only fuels the flame
that is deep inside of me.
You will never know what you mean to me.
No words or actions can convey this.
Please come a pick me up
and end this misery
I miss you more than life.
I'm like a calilily
with no sun or water
I'm withering without you.
You tell me that everything will be all right
that I just need to âtough it outâ.
But I canât do it anymore.
Iâm dying here without you.
You tell me not to cry,
so for your sakeâ¦
I donât let you see me cry.
I wait until you hang up the phoneâ¦
and burst into tears.
Wailing like a child
who has just discovered that she is lost.
I need you more now
than I ever have before.
My love only grows stronger
as the days go by.
I need to see your face
and hear your heart beat.
I need you arms around me.
I need to sleep with you next to me.
With your arms around me
and legs intertwined
The thought of that day
is all I have to keep me going.
Please donât forget about me.
Iâm so far away.
Havenât seen you in monthsâ¦
Only getting to hear your voice
once in a while.
I hope I havenât changed too much.
Will you still love me?
I canât imagine my life without you.
Please come for me,
and beg me to return.
I will if you askâ¦
just askâ¦
and Iâll be there.
Soon my loveâ¦
Soon.
I will be with youâ¦
and will never leave you.
Never again,
to feel
this emptiness and pain.
I love you.
