As I sit... Missing you As I stand... Missing you As I lay... Lonely again, missing you And the scent of vanilla wafts through the air I remember: The first sight of you The first half-shy smile Our first embrace The feel of you against me and the promise of tomorrow As I smoke... Missing you As I dream... Missing you As I lay... my bed once again empty Missing only you Your scent still on the pillows and the sheets, still in the air, charged with the memory of you as am I And charged also with the hope that you will once again brighten my doorway and my life With your charm and your wit and your impudent tongue that thrusts outward whenever our lips meet, and most of all your love, which warms me and refreshes me and reminds that this vale is not all pain and loss and suffering, nay, far from it As long as you are a part of this world I love you, and I miss you

For my love...very free verse, and probably not very good poetry, but honest

Fintan, that is wonderful! It has so much movement and climb. Don't be so modest with commenting on your poetry. Keep on writing more.

Outstanding. It comes from your heart, which (in my mind) makes it the best kind of poetry. The very best kind of writing!

Wonderful pacing. Starting slowly in short bursts, rising to climactic eloquence, resolving in a simple, honest statement. Kudos to you.
(P.S. I can't get used to 'lay' instead of 'lie'. Otherwise it's super.)
