Moments In Love

It’s been so long since I’ve seen you
Even longer since I felt your voice
Whispering in my ear.
I miss the way you made me feel
Whenever you touched me.
Your kisses were so soft
Like down feather pillows.
Your hugs embraced me
Like a winter comforter.
Feelings that should never be
Linger like a lasting impression.
Even though our line of
Communication is blurring,
I miss your text messages that
Came with an unexpected smile.
I try to suppress my feelings
But it doesn’t always work.
The more I try the stronger they get.
My heart is breaking.
The funny thing is though,
I had my heart set on someone else.
I didn’t want it to be you.
It wasn’t supposed to be you.
But when my fleshly desires
Emerged from the depths of
My emptiness, a wave of emotions
Within my heart began
Coursing through my veins.
Surprise, denial, excitement
Disappointment and then finally
Acceptance.
You felt so good to me.
I watched the sun rise
And set in your eyes.
My love for you will always be.
I feel for you in my moments and
Imagine us touching and feeling
And kissing and holding each other.
I can feel our bodies melding together
As if they were meant to be that way.
The love we had was so beautiful.
Please don’t go away.
