I miss you Babe

Not often overcome by such feelings…not in this way.

It seemed like from nowhere, you appeared in my mind and spoke to me.  Your gentle words echoed in my mind.  Softly warming up the parts that had remained cold and distant.  Bringing alight the embers which were withering and fading away.

You found a way in, and set down your roots.  Embedded in my mind, your image stares back at me….it closes the distance I’ve always felt within myself.  You mirror my desires and set free this longing.  This truth of what I want, what I seek.

Invade my mind.  Warm my heart. 

Last night, I just wanted you to be here.  It was such an intense feeling.  Missing you as though I would never see you again, never speak to you again.  I so wanted you to be here.  For things to be how they used to be.  I missed you so badly, I didn’t know that I could miss you like that.

Things change, I know.  Things move on, and experiences remain as memories.  This I understand only too well.  But feelings remain.  Above or below the surface, I know this is how I feel…I’ve just worked on hiding it from the world.  From you. 

I missed you.  And all I really wanted was to be able to say to you “Baby, come hold me.”  And for you to be able to do just that.
