beneath the obvious joy

merely the surface shine

that is what others see

I keep the companion

love and ache

to myself

for how can I trust

any of THAT

to anyone other than thee

thee  that shares in part

his own equal misery

with I missing you

and you missing me

I walk around with half of

myself tucked away

I can't stop thinking of you

even for a single day

your heart has woven

its tender self around mine

your being so far away

is the reason that I am

never again completely fine

just emotional walking wounded

longing for that day

that one specific moment in time

when 'This Parted Us'

becomes two

meant to be

together

lovers

having at last

their mutual way

no more parted

Tomorrow

how she holds for my

eyes

her own gentle lovely

sway

to walk into your open

out stretched arms

there is for me no more

appealing want

other than to be able

to touch you for

forever and a day....................
