Alone Again

Where is the smiling face of love 
that I dream of... 
the gentle touch 
that means so much? 

Where are the words I long to hear 
that bring you near 
and warm my heart 
while we're apart? 

I cannot help but feel the chill, 
and though you still 
light up my dreams, 
that's all, it seems.

Hi Darlene, no, I'm not depressed, at least not much. Just tired of being sick. This poem was started during a time of being apart due to work. It was really personal and I've just decided to share it so I have been editing it for my audience. Thank you for your concern though. You are appreciated. Your friend, Ron
