I Just Don’t Want To Miss You

Left to wash away
All the pain in my eyes
Face, pure torture
And all that I wont
Is that simple feeling
Of your hands upon my skin
I'd give up everything
Just to touch you
Yet your the farthest
That you possibly could be

I just don’t want to miss you tonight

I don’t want to be seen
By the light of day
Nothing seems right
I don’t want to
Rise from my bed
Into another cold morning
Without you by my side
I don’t think the world is caring
That I can't stand without crying

I just don't want to miss you tonight

When nothing is real
And reality has hit the floor
I want to fall into your arms for safety
But they're the farthest away they could be
Can I just run away?
To wake up by your side
Can't we just be happy?
I'm frozen in spot
Unable to bare
With the feelings inside

I just don't want to miss you tonight. . . . . . . .
No sleep can I find
Because of the heartache
And our bittersweet love
I just can't stand to miss you
I just don’t want to miss you tonight. . . . . . . .

  oh god ouch....you know it's one thing when words paint a picture in your mind but it's another when they just reach out and grab your heart and twist it around like it was a stress ball. Excellent piece lady

  That was excellent. The lack of rhyme in each stanza added to the emotion of the poem. Had it rhymed I feel it might have come off as childish. I think I'm gonna go read it again...
