PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

     A touch, a smell, a spoken word,
     a gentle, teasing sense of humor,
    a glimpse into the way things were,
            reminded me today of you~

  ~You held me once, even in my tears,
   listened, gave wisdom, in the face of fears,
    inspired me throughout the years
    we shared our hearts, our home~
    
   ~But now, I wonder if I'll ever see
  your eyes again, shining into me,
    or if one of us will leave here before
  we dare to open up this door~

   ~It's been there for too long, I know,
   though  it's not as big as it seems, & so
    I long to just knock on it, yet
  we both made choices we can't forget~
