My Love

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)



My Love

said, she
is still missing me...

the same way
she tells me

i love you,

even though,
we talk for hours

each and every day

even fall asleep
together and apart...

she's the one
who holds my heart
in her hands

whenever i am confused,
she understands

revealing how she longs
to kiss and hold me close...

and so do i
express
my need to be there

so many ways

by the secret
of our minds,

between your thoughts
and mine

searching the very point

our worlds meet

where we are each
at places

just beyond each
others reach,

to grasp, we must
move a touch further

to get where
we must take that leap

beyond the familiar

into the sublime
