no regrets

 
you're missing and I find myself adrift
it aches this feeling of emptiness
you made me feel special in an awkward world
finessing my feelings, lifting up my soul
reaching into the darkness with a darkness of your own
 
tender feelings arose from ash
a spark then a fire burn within
I hold onto the knowledge you loved me
 
touch the want of desire
I'm reaching to you in the void you left
I believe you are there bereft of soul  
a hard man you won't look back
my eyes would swallow your pride
and bring you home
 
you left and returned to your quiet resolve
I will see you again on the horizon
I will always carry my affections closely
with our precious moments shared
I carefully sewed them in my heart's pocket
 
my loving cup is full of more than madness
I cherish our time together
I whisper parables on the winds
may they keep you safe from harm
until you return again
