Lonely

This is a poem I wrote when Chris was gone for a few days for a work trip.  It's kind of funny because since we got married (5/31/08), we really haven't been away from each other for longer than that.  So, just to let you all know this was the one of the first days he was gone.  It was actually kind of nice to have our place to myself...but of course I missed him.  Here is the poem:

Lonely

Tonight I am lonely

I feel a bit aimless

Unsure of who I am 

In relation to these walls

So used to contrasting myself

With you

To sharing myself, my everything

Forcefully, always, 

With you, my Love

My heart is with you, 

Though I am not

And the tension causes a pang

Of desire for your being

Not sensuous, not just physical

But your soul interrupting mine

Your stubbornness against mine

Is that strange to miss?

Ah, but that is why we are

The best of friends
