Heartache - Poetry - Lakeside Park

Heartache

you came to me so softly
and stood by me, fascinated
in me
just me
not what i know
or what i can do
or what i can create
if i let my dreams take wing
but me

and i let you stand there
because it was the right thing
and i never realized
you filled the part of me
that had been empty for so long
that i thought it was a part of me
rather than an absence of all

i never realized what they mean
by "love makes you whole"
until i missed you so....
