I can smell the essence of you
still lingering in the air
where? everywhere!
essence mixed with flashes of memories
from where you stood
where you smiled
where you laid
and stayed a while
I looked at the tea cup
and remembered you sipping tea
I see the napkin in the wastebasket
still damp from your lips
Now..silence
you have left
the quietness seems louder
emptiness swarms in
I look at the phone
and say to myself
I wish
Oh, I wish I can call you
and tell you to come back home

A poem of passion and poignant, empty feelings. Best wishes, dear poetess.
A very sad poem, a release of emotions is a good thing in poetry, I must say....his loss
All around you see signs of someone, but not the person - such a sadness
you have left the quietness seems louder emptiness swarms in .... oh I wish I can call you and tell you to come home....feel here the essence of you, the love; the heart of love feels the essence of true one very near to life as friend of eternity...pleasure to read
