Cj Krieger Poet Prose

I Will Always Be Missing You

How I long 
For the cold winter winds 
To stop blowing 
And the chimes 
Outside my house 
To still into silence 

I have become a prisoner 
In a cage 
Of my own making 
A cage of velvet's and summers 
That hold me as well 
As any steel bars 

With each breath 
I look about 
And wonder 
Why this life 
That I have chosen 
Fits me so well 

The pains of old age 
Have fallen upon me 
As I move about 
Without a snap 
In my step 
Or a smile in my heart 

I don’t know 
Who you are 
But I have missed you 
And I fear 
That no matter 
What life brings 

I will always be 
Missing you 
That is why 
I have chosen this day 
To let winter in 
And say goodbye… forever
