Missing You

I don't know yet if I particularly like how this poem turned out. I kept debating with myself if I should even post, finally decide I've posted things I didn't really like before. Maybe I'll end up liking this poem later. 

Distance away from you 

Is pulling at my heartstrings.

Trying to start anew,

Despite, you I still keep yearning. 

Your filling all of my dreams,

Reminding me of what we had. 

We once stood on moon-beams 

Together, I was your comrade. 

I long for your embrace

The comfort and safety it brought. 

Between us is much space 

 United only in thoughts. 

Your hair so rich and brown 

Engraved with a unique scent;

That turned me upside down 

Since the day we first met.

Your eyes so lively and deep; 

They could see far into my soul.

Everything you'd upsweep 

Before I'd find a cubbyhole. 

Your lips a rosy red;

Told me many a day I was loved. 

Yet we are tarred and shred,

Caught in a fight where we both shoved.
