Time scares me when you leave my arms
A single breath without you seems like wasted years
When your heart and my heart sit on the balcony of what we built  together
Every other ***** of my body seem to disappear
I guess your irresistible beauty takes them away
For only the melody of my heart beat I feel
Probably beating on the walls of my chest trying to get to you

But now you are far away
The ghost of your kiss haunts my emotions
Can't have a clear thought without the memory glistening in my mind

This body have become an abandoned house
No one dares comes in
Cause it's haunted by your memories
Dark without the torch of your smile

I want you to know just a single day has made all this difference
Imagine forever
Please don't do imagine that
My heart wouldn't endure such pain

It's been so many nights
I've scrolled down my contact list
& Highlighted your name.
So many nights you've crossed
My mind and never left.
Wherever you call home
Wherever I call home.
Places I thought we'd never go
Desperate finding our way back.
You're name a direct reflection
Of the sun,
My finger an eclipse.
Unknown to the philosophers
And professors who study science.
It's been so many nights
I've scrolled down my contact list
& Your name has shone bright
Like some shooting star
Searching for something it's lost.
Knowing our history
You'd have to be there to have
Seen it.
Without first contact,
I miss you every time

I lift my head up from the bow
A risk to take just yet
Iron caves have rusted
Surround and keep me warm
To leave here now frightens me so
But to stay will do the same
Years and year so dream to return
Forever I sorley yearn
To speak you and to find you
Is the only vision I can see
Your hand reached out to mine
So calmly and serene
To step over that threshold
Into the safety of always
Where we dance in memories past
Laugh as we always have
My Dear Poet Aug 2021
from what I can remember
I’ve been missing you
since the day I tried to forget you
My Dear Poet Jul 2021
Returning nests to their trees
Raking the wind for the leaves
You’re too busy to miss me

Creating shadows behind a screen
Stitching seasons at their seams
You’re too busy to miss me

Gathering the stars and their gleam
Scattering fears and their screams
You’re too busy to miss me

Washing winter in it’s stream
Painting the world a brighter green
You’re too busy to miss me

Missing me would mean
taking away your dream
…so please, don’t miss me
Sometimes we walk a different path
YS Jul 2021
I wish I could talk to you and tell you how I am feeling because I know you’d understand. You always did.
And I know you’d help. The best you could.
And it was always enough for me.
But things are different now.
I know that.
So instead I will write you a message that I'll never send.

ever the shade of blue
you've left us in;
my walls painted purple,
the evidence between my fingernail
and the skin.

i chip off the paint in bed.
high off the fumes of a dark empty room and visions of you.

curtains falling
it's a billowing view
late summer nights bring wind from the sea
remind the lonely how cold it is,
or maybe that night mother earth wanted to remind me
how to breathe,
and how you can feel alive if you let the cold hit your cheek;
it was disconcerting
to say the least.

i was listening from the sheets
between the curtains and underneath

each gust of wind
visions of you
walking in the room

i dont know what i believe in,
but i guess it's not you.
silence on dark roads past winding view
all my men have left me
nothing to do

feeling purple & cleaning my room
