The Heart Knows

by gansach

My tearful eyes see
 
the empty chair where
 
our ev'nings were shared.
 
 
 
My searching hand feels
 
your missing presence
 
in our lonely bed.
 
 
 
My questing nose hopes
 
your scent will linger
 
in barren spaces.
 
 
 
My hungry mouth seeks
 
to recall the taste
 
of the lips I miss.
 
 
 
My longing ears try
 
to hear your sweet voice
 
in this empty house.
 
 
 
All my senses feel
 
they have been deprived
 
of joy that was you.
 
 
 
My broken heart knows
 
you will always be
 
right here beside me.
