Where are you tonight <br /> Without you I am lost <br />All through the night <br /> I turned and I tossed <br /> <br />You are my good half <br /> With you gone I'm not whole <br />Your absence leaves emptiness <br /> Which soon takes a toll <br /> <br />I reach out but can't touch you <br /> And that's just not right <br />As I think how your closeness <br /> Would soften the night <br /> <br />I knew I would miss you <br /> But knew not how much <br />As I yearn for your presence <br /> And pine for your touch <br /> <br />My spirit is restless <br /> Sensing something amiss <br />As spaces seem empty <br /> Without hugs and a kiss <br /> <br />Please don't stay gone long <br /> As I may not endure <br />For this ache deep inside <br /> Only you have the cure <br /> <br />Your absence reminds me <br /> Of the richness we share <br />But too much reminding <br /> Just would not be fair <br /> <br />So please come home soon <br /> That our halves may unite <br />As your nearness and touch <br /> Once more makes life right<br /><br />Mark Bratlie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/please-come-home-soon/
