Three Weeks

Your words are fresh in my mind,
"You, are the cause of my wanting to be better".
~ I want to come home and be a regular guy,
one that is gentle, loving and kind.
Those words, they made me feel so much,
so strong, so loving, trusting and such ~
Today is the day, three weeks at this time,
my world stopped cold and began to unwind.
We emailed and said that your surprise,
would be waiting by phone,
one that set you on fire, with love and desire.
My love, you are the man I adore,
the only one who made me want more,
of life's sweet gifts, ones that move and make change,
giving wings to our dreams, of things all tender and serene.
Some days are so hard, I think constantly about ~
your face, voice and want to shout out,
all that you loved, lived and been through,
you are missed, in all that you do.
The reading, smoking, the wining and dining too,
the talking and all that we knew.
Your family and friends will allow,
only parts of what I felt and all that you grew,
to love and cherish in life and now death,
your mind and knowing it, is what I have left...
No wait, not the whole story, because,
I have all that you gave to me.
Your heart, is what I cherish the most,
to feel you present in all that I seek,
I miss you my love...it is now three weeks.

Candor dat viribus alas.

Love, Gianna
