After the break-up 'letting go' doesn't happen easily.
I awaken suddenly
And reach for you.
Your gentle embrace,
The smoothness
Of your strong arms,
Your warm breath
         Caressing my neck
                   Steadily
                             Gently
                                       Lulling me to sleep.

All is right
Within my world
With you here.
When you were here.

I clutch your empty pillow
Wishing for
Your warmth and love,
And before long
I feel hot tears
         Caressing my cheek
                   Steadily
                             Gently
                                       Lulling me to sleep.


A friend of mine, whom I just adore, wrote a companion piece to this poem. I hope you enjoy it as I do. "Invalid ItemOpen in new Window.
