The burning

HangingbyaHalo

 

It is a conundrum to miss someone that you see every day.

That you sleep next to every night,

I hear your voice,

Look into your eyes,

Yet I crave you like it has been years since your skin graced mine.

The dull motions of life can sometimes leave a feeling of distance in things that are but mere inches away from each other.

I see you

but I cannot touch you,

Not the way that I want to

I often search for the warmth of your lips in the sun,

I find it does not burn bright enough.

When the sun sets,

and I am alone

It is a fond reminder of your smile.

Never exactly the same

but always full of wonder and beauty.

The moon rises,

she is almost as blue as your eyes tonight,

I search but I do not find you there.

I am living in a four inch dead space of artic abyss,

In Between to flames that burn like hells inferno

And I want nothing more than to feel the burn.
