Longing
Through the kisses of you mouth i shall live
The love in your eyes shall instigate a smile
Heart beating fast each time you name is mentioned
A simpleton I have come to embrace my little joys
Premonitions of our older lives come by each day
like an asthmatic, pumps only feed off of your scent
Time a luxury, wish i met your eyes a year earlier
Probably would have messed up or would have not
The wind caressing your hair am a bit jealous
A step lost in time is yet to be regained
envious of the sun touching your every pour
madness it may be, yet you still smile at every word
Traces of your steps a tressure hunt to your heart
forming words that actually brings more empathy
to the world your good heart a weakness
to my house it shall be natured and cared for
About this poem
