Just a Day...

M y…O My!
O  paque, can only describe the void
T  hat engulfs the sky,
H  ide me, for my forlorn spirit
E  mbodies pain which I deny,
R  ain, as it precipitates my cries…

Just a day…
Without seeing your silhouette,
        Blinded by your absence, as I regret
My powerlessness…

Just a day…
As I sit and wait,
            Impatiently, I anticipate
Your warmth, your tenderness…
Motionlessly, I sit and contemplate,

Just a day…
As it perpetually passed by,
             As opaqueness drenched the sky…
I calmly sighed, as I picked up a calendar…

I crossed out “Day one” with tears in my eyes…
As I quietly murmured,
“Six more days to go…”
