Where Are You

Where Are You? I don’t see you You said that you would come I’m cold and lonely Where are you? All this mistletoe With not a soul to kiss I’m all alone. Where are you? I gave some silly reason Just to leave the house. You said you would come. Where are you? For others there is cheer It’s Christmas season I’m all alone. Where are you?

I might add also... While I see sadness in so many things, I always believe in finding the light at the end of the tunnel. You notice that at the end of the poem, I did't give up. I'm just facing my emotions... the first step to healing.

Never afraid to do my own thing. Emotions are what I seem to write most about.

My favourite viewpoint on the mistletoe gatherer. I find these verses to be brief and concise, yet completely moving and effective. I am floored by the depth of emotion packed into such a short space. I wanted to give this poem a much higher place, but was unable to since it did not follow the guideline stating that there should be rhymes in the poem. Still, I consider it better than most of the poems that did have the rhymes, as many of them forced the direction of the poem, or did not match.

Thank you for your encouraging comments. I guess I get carried away with the emotional image when I write and sometimes am forced away from any formal pattern.
