I miss you

23 4 3
                                    

I faked a smile,
as I died,
inside.

My soul
called out
to you,
whispering.

I played a role
of somebody else
and failed to be,
wholly myself.

It felt unholy
and ghostly
to be
without you.

I was lonely
and I wished
to be homey.

Distance of miles
was between us
yet our love remained.

-G. Rea
