Longing

Like an abyss, the nothingness left behind
when you were suddenly gone.

The feel of you sleeping in my arms

The softness of your cheek against my chest

Your quiet, slow breathing
and that peacefulness in your face

Feeling you stir as light of dawn
appears against the window

The smile on your lips
as you see me marveling
at the beauty of you

The depth of your eyes
when you looked into mine

The emptiness of now
