Absence's Wake <br /> <br /> Time measured in minutes and seconds are a constant enemy of the battle I endure, until the next time I see your face. <br /> I arise each day with your thought and my decent at night isn't complete without you being the final one thought. <br /> Overwhelmed by the promised heart and so I continue to struggle, until the next faithful day. <br />Anxiously awaiting the next time we're together ending absence's wake. <br /> <br />DOR,112211<br /><br />Ron Pate<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/absence-s-wake/
