A Reminder Of Absence Poem by Andrew Rose

You’re the most precious person in my life,
I still get this beautiful image of you
Whenever I close my eyes.
And it’s followed by a feeling,
Like you're always with me,
Constantly telling me that you love me,
And it makes me feel so special inside.

You'll never need to worry about losing me,
I will always be here for you,
Hoping that things will work out between us,
Waiting for your love,
That love which keeps me dreaming all night,
Until my dreams come true.

It makes me sad at times,
When I dream of you,
And the dream seems real enough,
Only I wake,
To find that you’re not laying beside me,
You’re hidden within the comfort of my dreams.

I long for your warm touch,
The touch of inner life,
While ambiguous emotions stir in the corner of my eyes,
It seems I can only dream for now...
But a tear holds inside it one precious desire of wonder.
