Not enough

In a blink of an eye you vanished,

in a heartbeat you were gone…

like a cruel joke of the universe

you ceased to be visible to my eyes,

you ceased to be tangible.

The pain became unbearable,

the guilt overpowering,

the feeling of being forsaken was just unendurable...  

It was my desire to walk beside you,

to learn with you, to grow together

to become bigger, stronger and better.

I have a quenching thirst for your words,

for your looks

and for your smile.

I crave your touch,

your laugh,

your smarts,

and beside you

for moments of bliss I yearn.

I cry for the loss...

you became more than lover, a Friend.

And I find myself mourning that I simply

didn't have enough time to show you I cared....
