Can Not Find the Words

Can’t Find The Words

To express, to say, how much I care for you
Words hide themselves between sand grains
In dust storms brought on in pain from missing parts
The heart of missing you
Reminders of stinging particles through mind and flesh
Lost in dry desert heat 
When you are gone 
Sun beats down the senses
No longer falls on your golden hair
Or bounces off oasis waters blue with kind reflections
Deep in love with you
Dark comes on sand storms strong
Rages against the landscape empty
Search lights can’t find the remnants of your soul 
Buried over times kind pleasure
Sentiments of love phrases
Lost out there in outer space
Fragrances escape into the cosmic bliss in distances
Forever gone, far reaches yet to be defined or born
Ride on lifted words to sing their hearts desire
The senses take their time to find their way
Is it there by the dunes of night or day? 
Where is my love at times like these?
To express, to say the words how much I care
Somewhere in this world or in another
My lover waits to hear these words not yet discovered
