John Posey Poet Rhyme

Westchase Without You

Today I saw people walking,
Holding hands, and talking --
Lovers, in quiet places,
Exchanging smiling faces --
And I missed you so!

I felt a hint of envy
Rise up from deep within me.
Alone, in an asphalt countryside,
Today. I bowed my head and cried --
Because I missed you so!
