On other days

On days that I don't hear from you I wake without a smile
No stars in skies of grey not midnight blue
The shortest note to say hello my dreams are filled with style
It seems the land of dreams is ruled by you

Another time you write in rhyme and then I glow inside
To feel the words that squeezed out past your heart
I know that I'm just foolish but I find I swell with pride
To think I may have played the smallest part

And when your picture is of you I feel that I'm complete
And I can face next day the perfect way
I feel that you are next to me and that's a taste so sweet
For when you're there our words are sure to play

Today your verse was personal I felt you very near
I wanted you to gently kiss and hold
The way I feel about you must by now be rather clear
I'm lost in love I hope that's not too bold

Out on a beach when you're in reach your freckles hold my eyes
I dream that you and I are locked as one
That you are there and I am here is life just telling lies
Reality is trying to spoil my fun

On days when you are far away I miss the way I feel
When I can feel that you are close to me
Although you're in my mind I know the way I feel is real
And deep in love's the only way to be

    This is quite beautiful and although is is a poem of love, I feel a certain sadness to it, but they are feelings I can relate to

    All the best
