Missing

Missing

Phantom fingers in my hair

Gently sliding down

A slight touch

Deftly caressing

Longing for what cannot be had

The barriers are too high

The cost, too much

Could the world suffer your loss?

Mine would be no heartbreak

Not even a blip on the radar

Separation is good for the soul

Or at least

That is what everyone

Seems convinced I need to hear

What is your opinion, love?
