    sonnet missing

    Almost all the way back to conventional sonnet crafting for this old dog….

    Missing

    When be those moments of the greatest pain?
    At what clock ticks does my heart ache and woe?
    What are those places worry makes great gain?
    Where lie the avenues of deep sorrow?

    They’re the long minutes I hear naught of thou
    I find them in the hours without your words
    My heart yearns to touch but knows not how
    When the span’s a distance flown by great birds

    But know you, these pains only come because
    Visions of you, my love, ere live in me
    You, my only one, my soul does give pause
    Your name my heart doth pound, my eyes ere see

    Yet, in those moments you are a scant ghost
    I feel the pain of loving you the most

    Years ago I started writing Flash Fiction for just the sheer enjoyment of writing, and now it has turned into a full blown addiction. I can't quit the horse, man! Another dirty little secret about me is my ability to write all kinds of web content. SEO content, articles, blog posts, manifests; you name it, I'll write it. Looking for some help?
