Where did you go?

Sometimes when I see your face, I want to walk away
Cross some distant miles to keep the wolf at bay
You howl and growl, looking stern and mean
Hunger for your very soul keeps me dark and lean
I never ask for seconds, a second helping, please
You are stingy with your gifts, but they bring me to my knees
I look for you, searching for that special sign
One that proves to me, that your heart is mine
Why can't I see you, just how far did I go?
I love you, and I miss you, and ache to see you whole
A secret keeps you in my special hiding place
One I've locked away, as my gray disgrace
Where will I find you, when I long to hear your voice?
When the weighted lumps of life push me to make a choice
In that space I find you, waiting patiently
Afterall, the person whom I'm missing so, is me.
