Love is not the same when my love does not love you <br />Weak when I am with thee, meek without thee <br />Death never died, like my soul dies when death ensue <br />Without thee affections to incinerate mine tears weary <br />I walk through the storm of lost love dreary <br />Like the orphan I know not love but loves woe <br />If love is a dove, than my love a crow <br />And tears that make one strong, make me week <br />Through tears veil, with passion vehement I seek <br />My love's soul, her body, her apparition <br />To pledge my repentance and emanate contrition <br />But passion ameliorates naught, and does not turn <br />my love to love thee… I still burn <br />without thee.<br /><br />Kevin Michael Murphy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/missing-love/
