Longing in the Night

In the deep of night, I long for you so dear,

To see your face, to hold you near.

My heart aches with a longing so true,

You can’t imagine how much I miss you.

Unpredictable moments, I’m overwhelmed by desire,

Helpless and defenseless, my heart’s on fire.

I surrender, admit defeat to this fate,

Letting myself miss you, it’s a heavy weight.

I’ve tried not to be moved, but I fear,

Thoughts of you can overwhelm, it’s clear.

So I avoid staying in, I go out to play,

Yet solitude brings thoughts of you my way.

Alone, I can’t help but shed a tear,

My longing for you, it’s always here.

I seek out jokes to make me grin,

But beneath the laughter, you’re still within.

I smile and cry, my heart in two,

Eating chocolate, thinking of you.

In my heart, your absence stings,

Missing you, missing you, it’s a song that sings.

Words and texts, reminders they are,

A movie, and a smile, all bring you to me.

Little warmth, it’s your presence I feel,

Accidentally, I’ve become so real.

Vulnerable now, I step with care,

Avoiding the landmine, I’m aware.

Always miss you, your warmth in stride,

But sometimes, I let hope subside.

Before we met, messages could be erased,

But now, they stay, leaving a trace.

Last night, I gazed at the sky so wide,

Wanted to message you, but what to confide?

I miss you deeply, that’s a fact,

But I won’t intrude, that’s my pact.

You’re my everything, my constant through and through,

I find my happiness in loving you.
