January 8

Without you
     there is no sound. no laughter.
     All I hear is silence –
     Silence is the sound
of missing you.

Without you
     my arms are empty.
     I no longer feel the softness –
     Softness is the feel
of touching you.

Without you
    my words are lonely –
    Lonely are the words
                of wanting you.

Without you
    my heart cries sadness –
    Sadness is the cry
                of needing you.

With you
    my soul finds comfort –
    comfort is what comes
                from loving you.
