Rhythmic Thoughts

Today's Rhythmic Thoughts are inspired by one of my best friends, who sadly lives too far away...lately I've been missing her so much more than usual. For so many years I took for granted the ability to walk out my front door and be at hers without 10 minutes having past....oh what I'd give to be able to do that again, even if just for today...

Close To You

To voice the pain of your absence
that overwhelms and consumes me inside,
would prove to be impossible
I can only tell it with my eyes.

The frustration, tension and loneliness I feel
involuntarily makes me weak.
I hold on until it hurts,
my release wets my cheek.

As it leaves the safe haven of my soul
my emotions engulf my being
fat drops of love
blur my vision, restrict me from seeing

Thoughts of you flood my mind
Loud enough for my soul to hear
Right now, this is as close as I can be to you,
So, I dare not wipe that tear.
