Love Poem: Without You

Without You

Look at me now.
I want to see you,
Touch you; 
I long to hear your voice.  
This deafening silence
Has taken you from me. 
I speak alone, 
I hear my voice; 
Answer me.
  
My days are spent with memories
That mock me;
They prick my soul with painful thorns,
With sores that never shut. 
I reach for you, 
Yet there is nothing.

No words of comfort will bring you back,
No loud sound, 
No solemn prayers,
No nothing. 

Oh God, take me from this place
I yearn to touch her face.
