Midst of Silence

In the midst of silence, echoes whisper loud Longing for your voice, a symphony profound Fragrant memories linger, haunting my space Your scent, like a flower, still brings solace and grace Oh, how your warmth embraced me, a tender flame Now distant, your absence leaves an empty frame I yearn for the touch that once set my heart ablaze Lost in the wilderness, longing for your maze Eyes that danced with mischief, locked me in a trance Now I search in the haze, searching for that glance Lips that were heaven's gate, sealing fate's decree Only echoes remain, aching for the ecstasy Passion unleashed, entwined souls filled with fire Now a distant memory, fading with each desire Your understanding soul, a sanctuary of peace Oh, how I miss that sanctuary, my heartache won't cease Love poured like a river, flowing unconfined Now a reservoir drained, I seek what I once called mine Bodies intertwined, the symphony of love's embrace Now echoes reside, a lingering touch, I chase Yet through it all, the truth remains clear and stark I yearn for your presence, I long for your mark For in honesty's grip, I confess without pretense My longing is simple, to have you once again, immense.
