My Letter

by Eibutsina   Aug 26, 2004


I am attempting to write you a letter
But I am lost for words to say
It’s so hard when I can’t see you
When I want to each single day.
I wonder just what you are doing
When I’m lying in bed late at night
Though I have so many questions
For some reason they are so difficult to write.
So it is with this bizarre dilemma
I find myself writing yet another poem
A poem about how I can’t find the words for my letter
While I’m thinking about you at home alone.
I just find it so painfully hard
That you are not here when I need you the most
Always such a time and distance away
When all I want is for you too hold me close.
Though the very many weeks and miles
May occasionally keep us separated and apart
I’ll always save a quiet thought for you
With which there is a smile within my heart.
It cuts me so much deeper
Too see you and then have to let you go
Are these the words I intended to say in my letter
In reality I just don’t know.
I long to have you with and near me
I’m in writhing agony for your touch
I miss more than anything waking up next to you
Little moments that mean very much.
My tears can’t help but fall
Each time I have to step back on that plane
Knowing that in a week or two
I’ll be putting myself through that again.
But I can’t write this in my letter
I find it so intense and hard to say
I hate showing any sign of weakness
I don’t want you to see me this way.
Cause more than anything in this world
I love the precious time we share together
I guess maybe I have found just a few words
For me to write in my letter…

Thanks everyone for reading please take the time to comment and of not at least vote! Thanks!

    sooooo realistic, you actually in the middle of writing one or what? If so, just put that in an envelope hun, and send that, it's really great.
