Merry Christmas Night

You consume my thoughts
You fill my mind
You’re all I need
I seek to find
Your touch
Your gaze
Your love
Your all
I need you so much
It hurts inside
Please find a way
To be mine
I’ve tried to find
A way to be content
Without you
I can’t. It hurts so much without you here
Can your love find no safe space
In which to meet
My need?
Crying here without you
This not-so-merry
Christmas night.
I miss you so so very much
My most-beloved
