Yearning
I still feel your love
wrapped around my heart like a glove.
I see your face in the hall,
wishing you would just call.
Knowing your soul was my essence;
just makes me miss your presence.
looking at your picture on my wall,
makes me realize I miss you most of all.
Time moves on, the seasons turn;
nevertheless, my heart will yearn.

Your Poem's Voice
Deeply personal loss and longing; minimal abstract reflection.
Multiple ideas densely packed: longing, absence, memory, time, yearning.
Melancholic and sorrowful throughout; pervading sense of loss.
Subdued, reflective tone with minimal kinetic intensity or explosive language.
Approximately 14 lines; falls in 7-15 range.
Simile (like a glove), some metaphorical language, but relatively spare.
Pure lyric internal voice; intimate first-person reflection with no dramatic shift.
