Salome Dove Poet Free verse

I miss you

I miss you
I MISS YOU (how to let go?)

Why can't I be with you?
Every day like the sunshine. 
They say time heals all wounds,
But my Heart is
                          for all eternity to yours
                                                          Bound.
I have to comprehend,
I can't see you..  

It sounds like a joke,
But to miss you this much,
It really breaks my heart!

For Pierre.

Alison A Smith September 9, 2026 at 1:40 AM A deeply emotional piece of free verse, the repeated opening powerfully conveys the ache of longing. The shifting indentation visually mirrors a heart reaching across distance, while the plain, vulnerable language makes the devotion to Pierre feel immediate and sincere.❤️ Salome Dove September 9, 2026 at 5:31 AM Thank you. To be frank, I wrote this when I was 14. I have finally started writing again at 33 (hadn't since I was maybe 18). But it applies perfectly to me now, too. One could almost call it a pattern 😂👍🙏💕
