Sean..WOW...and you say I** write what YOU are thinking??? WOW again!! Like I've said many times before on great poems..soooo wish I* had written this!!! Sooo in love and our situations are so similar, you're right...can't relate much to last part and I'm sure that all worked out just fine..any number of reasons for not answering..but know how you feel..twice now couldn't get on internet at night, and felt like I was going to die!! At the very least, severe withdrawal! When these things are all we have, they make something that would otherwise just be fun, or unimportant seem like a necessity of life, like food, shelter.. :) Wishing you all the best with Amber, I'm sure it will work out just fine, just as with Craig & I just takes time and patience...the latter of which I run short of sometimes when I just simply want a quick cuddle..and I know you do too!! This is a lovely, heartfelt poem and such a pleasure to read it..thx for all of your comments, makes my day that someone would enjoy something I wrote from my heart. Take care..Luv Michelle :)

Hey Sean. Nice poem here. Don't you worry about your situation because you are definitely not alone. I know how you are feeling. Like, waiting by the phone hoping it will ring and that the person on the other line would be the one you love...but then it turns out to be your great grandmother wanting to know how old you are again. Anyways, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for sharing this poem with us. It's always good to know about other people's situations...well since it encourages me. Great job once again Sean. Take care.

AWESOME.....absolutely wonderful Sean! Know exactly how ya feel. Great poem!

oh the agonys of a long distance relationship, the constant pineing, waiting and longing for someone who lives in yr heart yet seemingly outta reach. even the briefest of contacts rests perturbed emotions and this poem brilliantly portrays that dilhema that we both seem to be going through my friend. found myself smiling and frowning in recognition at the majority of this piece, personaly identifying with most of these lines. it `kills me` too sean.
`i need to hear you love me` oh yes, a constant daily reassurance that things are still the same. even if they said it 50times yesterday, today is another day and the fear that things have changed, brought on by not being able to tangably see it with yr own eyes, creeps into the mind every morning. i love the `than money is to greed` very unusual but using the old poetical licence to full effect there, and emphasising that this girl is yr addiction of the heart, yr fix. the only thing in the world thats gonna make you feel better. clever stuff.
and it goes on `insomnia predicted`,`cannot go to sleep at night` amen to that sean, know exactly how that feels. michelle is 6hrs behind me so trying to work in our chats has caused massive destruction to our sleeping patterns, but jus goes to show when people want something they find the time for it.
those last two stanzas perfectly capture all the languid emotional turmoil of being apart, going to sleep in a cold empty bed with thoughts racing around the mind, a restless uneasiness that only the dead of sleep can bring relief.
but the best part for me sean has to be `rough roads lay ahead, in our futures path, but we shall persevere throught it,our love shields us from the wraith`. it a little comforting to know im not the only one going through this `torture`, this commotion of the senses, but my heart goes out to you because i wouldnt wish this h@ll on anyone. i really hope you and Amber get to the end of your journey as im sure you will, and live happily ever after. maybe we could all meet up one day and compare experiences! thanx for all the kind comments you have left on my poems, so sorry it has taken so long to reply but im sure you can understand why. all the best sean 5/5 superb.

Hey this a great poem Sean so keep up the good work and never stop dreaming big!! Thanx a bunch and love always,
~Rachel~
