My Sonnet (Feelings #2)

With a grin, a flash of teeth, a look

I am pulled under your force

I can lose myself in you

Your eyes are my rapture.

Knees weakened, heart pumping

I peek at you, and smile

I feel heavy with expectation

Yet, light with joy.

A blink, a teardrop, rolling down.

Dark room, night fall

Sorrow ensnares me

With a sigh, a shiver

I lay in bed, wishing.

<p>This poem was written in a letter to one of my children that due to some unfortunate circumstances cannot live at home with us. We miss him terribly. </p>
