it’s alright when I shut up and listen …

waiting
wanting
you

just you

but this damn waiting
feeling spun out
lost

knowing you’re there
somewhere

too far

then I close
my eyes
and listen

can see
your smile
almost hear
your laugh

feel you
right here
with me

(D. James)

I loved the simple structure and how well it conveyed the meaning of the poem…nicely done.
