If there are words
To describe the pang within
That comes early in the morning
When I look over to my side
And see your face, but feel nothing,
Those words must be colored in deep hues
Of longing and loneliness
Tinted with a caress of your hair,
Painted across me...
I am the color of you.

Really great job
I think that you have captured your feelings and dissapointments in this relationship very well here. I think that the idea of having someone is not idealistic anymore, it has become more of a comforting feeling. Being "alone" and being "lonely" are two completely different things. You can have a significant other and a million best friends who surround you at all times but if you do not have that one person who you know through and through 100% and they know you as well, your life could seem incomplete and all emotions will have to flee in order from feeling so vulnerable....great write, please keep writing, I enjoyed this a lot! Best wishes.

Good
Good write Words don't always decribe what we feel. The hurt goess deep. I like you last line "I am the color of you." Color does describe somethings well.
