My words are:
sweet tea ~ door ~ car ~ sunshine ~ school

I miss the feeling of sunshine on my face.
I miss long, aimless rides in the car.
I miss attending school and learning new things.
I miss the taste of your homemade sweet tea.
I miss the way life use to be.
I miss seeing you walk in the door.
I miss the electricity I would feel when our eyes would meet.
I miss hearing you say my name.
I miss staying up late in the night talking to you.
I miss the way life use to be.
I miss the feeling up your arms wrapped around me.
I miss day trips to the beach, sand between my toes.
I miss everything being in its own place.
I miss cooking delicious meals.
I miss the way life use to be.
I miss being yours.
I miss you being mine.
I miss us.
I miss planning our future.
I miss the way life use to be.

beautiful but sad poem...wipes away the tears.
ReplyDeleteLonging is such an overwhelming emotion, especially when, in the past, you've had what you're longing for.
ReplyDeleteHope you end up with exactly what you need.
Sweet but sad. Heartfelt though. ❤
ReplyDeleteIf I had a hard time feeling melancholy or using this word as one of my six, then you have it down perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI hope life throws you some opportunities that make you write a happy, cheerful poem next month ❤
Wow! I never would have pictured the words used like this, but I like it. Sad, but having experienced that kind of pain myself many years ago that's exactly how it feels. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThat was beautiful. I miss all those things too, except for the sweet tea one. I've never had anyone make me sweet tea before, but your poem makes it seem like it is something I should miss regardless.
