"You"

15 3 2
                                    

I call out,
though no one hears my cries-
cries of solitary loneliness.
When I'm with you
this feeling dies.

I feel a calm.
I feel a peace.
Like in the eye of a storm,
when I am wrapped up
in your arms
safe and warm.

Your details engraved
in my memory
like a sculptor's masterpiece
carved deep into stone forever.

With every second
reminding me of you,
passing ever so slowly-
when we are apart.
At least I have
reminders of you
eternally emblazoned
on my heart.
