Missing You Poem by Dennis Murphy

Missing You

Rating: 5.0


Back from hostile places, Recycled home I stay
Tommorrow's the twelfth, Hey it's your day
Dutifully, Because Hey thats me
I'll go light a candle, But in its light I wont see

I've no taste for the wine, Not without you
You know it brings my smile from within, For that I'm too blue
Now I drink potions, Closer to fossil fuels
My blue heart betrays me, Just like a fools

She looked like you, True beauty head to toe
I smiled all night, But all I felt was woe
Her eyes invited me, The way yours used to
So we danced and danced, Just like me an you

We swayed all night, In a neutral bed
But the sun arose and shone into my soul, I'ts dead
I strapped up my boots, As she spoke of pancakes
So beautiful so young, Left kissless post-haste

Beautiful young an interesting, I'ts true
What every-man should want, Except she just wasn't you

Ahhh, Dennis...They say that somewhere out there...is that one person for each of us...that lights the fire that never extinguishes...that warms the heart, and the very cockles of one's soul...This piece you have so eloquently penned...vividly depicts this amorous ''alleged''fact! Solid Write, my friend...Good to see you back in the saddle on PH! ~F j R~
