I could love you,
when I couldn’t love anyone.
I could love you,
during summertime
and even in the winter months.
I could love you an entire lifetime long,
but what I was not ready for
was to miss you
in every face and form.
I see the plains of a new horizon
and miss the passion weaved into your bones,
I feel the heat and start to wonder
if you ever think of me at all.
Whichever way you look at it,
it’s undeniable-
some places
lodge themselves
heavy into the soul.
