Missing You
While you're gone my mind tumbles
toward the sea
aimlessly bobbing
against the rocks and the anguish
of a washed up surf
waves move me in
and move me out
of my own way
I reach for the light of day
the sights soften the blows
searched amongst the silhouettes
inscribed in long lost soliloquy
darkness beckons
I breathe
I can only breathe in
the scents you left in your wake
I'm awake now
still but awake
awaiting
you're away and I'm reading
swept away and I'm needing
time, your precious precious time
toward the sea
aimlessly bobbing
against the rocks and the anguish
of a washed up surf
waves move me in
and move me out
of my own way
I reach for the light of day
the sights soften the blows
searched amongst the silhouettes
inscribed in long lost soliloquy
darkness beckons
I breathe
I can only breathe in
the scents you left in your wake
I'm awake now
still but awake
awaiting
you're away and I'm reading
swept away and I'm needing
time, your precious precious time

This makes me think of someone very dear to me. It moves and flows beautifully, Tim. An easy keeper for me

I've been missing someone too! As always you are a master of ink baby. I come back just to read ones like you.
