Being Away

Being away from you kills me,
the warmth of your touch,
as you held my dimpled cheek,
against you,
with my tears wetting your shirt-
still lingers there,
as if twere never gone.

You went away ,
taking a part of me with you;
now here i am,
i do not know where my soul is,
perhaps its still clinging onto you,
refusing to let go

.Now leaning on the balcony,
with the setting sun beams,
poring through my eyes ,
my mind`s all in for you;
your black curious eyes,
fixed on mine,
as you held me in your arms,
against the balcony-
my heart always seemed to float away...
  

 
Seeing you only makes it worse, 
bits of those forever torn 'moments'-
trying to poke their heads back in,
the  excrutiating  pain as the bits tear through to me,
i can only but bear `em ;
as  your messy hair in the morning,
as your embarrassing smile,
as you,.. my dear,
enclose me in painful happiness.
