Line Gauthier Poet List

The Void of You

There are days I wonder how I could ever bear the loss of you. It scares me. Your absence. The silence. The emptiness. How I would long to nurture the void of you inside me. I can’t imagine life without :

    •	the twinkle in your eye
    •	your charm and laughter
    •	your generous affection
    •	the way you smile so freely
    •	your boyish sweetness and affection
    •	your gentle words and kindnesses
    •	even your silly comments and bad jokes
    •	your funny quirks and passions
    •	your unwavering support
    •	the safety of your arms
    •	and most of all those sweet nothings
