Midnight Thoughts | Poetry

Miss you

In memories' realm, I find my heart subdued,

No picture needed, thoughts of you ensue.

This yearning feeling, bitter and true,

Oh, how I miss you, through and through.

I tried to banish, erase from my mind,

Yet in my dreams, your presence I find.

A ghostly figure, lingering behind,

Yearning to forget, yet love I bind.

My emotions jumbled, a tangled knot,

But one thing's certain, and it's no plot,

You were a friend, I'll cherish the thought,

Longing for your return, my heart distraught.

Yet, pride holds my tongue, I dare not confess,

In silence I dwell, my heart in distress.

Until the day comes, to ease this duress,

I'll keep my love hidden, my heart a mess.

Without you near, thoughts of you arise,

Perhaps you're happier, severed our ties.

I deem myself dull, a bore in disguise,

Though I cared deeply, I apologize.

These words may go unread, lost in the tide,

Yet, may you remember, with joy beside,

Our laughter shared, moments we'd confide,

The efforts made to keep our bond untied.

I love you still, oh, friend of old days,

How I long for you in countless ways.

In yearning, I'll wander through life's maze,

Hoping our paths converge once more, always
