I Miss You

I've relinquished thee, Set thee alight with torture, For thee know not my decree, And I left thee to the rodents of nature. I fancied a dream once; I had thee sprung in winter, Had thee fruit in abundance, And sought life with love so richer. My heart went grey of love, I nested a heart of a nomad, I left thee with no roof above, Winter, summer reign in command. I have returned again, I will prune and water thee, Rebuild and better all the pain, For I had relinquished thee. I Miss You.
