Jasmine Murphy Poet Rhyme

I Miss You

Cry myself to sleep this night… 
your soul is nowhere in sight. 
As my head pounds with pain, I tell my heart to restrain…
 lying dead on the inside in the pouring rain… motionless. 

The rain turns to tears, the tears turn to fears. 
Don’t be upset that you can’t be here. 
I know you had to go away, even though I wanted you to stay… 

still continuing to cry. I ask myself, why?
 I look up at the sky just to get pelted with rain. 
You ease the pain. The moon shines through the clouds.
 The water falls upon my face, I can still see clear.
 All I see is you with me tonight, such a delight.

Robert Pettit February 20, 2011 at 3:51 PM A good way to describe a feeling of loneliness. Sometimes, our imagination is strong enough to lift us from reality into a world of our own. It's always a good idea not to stay there too long.
