Short Story: The Prisoner

Short Story: The Prisoner

Loneliness catches me at moments when I least expect it;

Today I was reminded of you; taken back to a special place in time;

As I thought of you, a certain sort of sadness filled my heart,

Even though the memories we have are beautiful, and thinking back on them fills my heart with joy.

I miss your soul surrounding mine in complete love, and my eyes swell with tears because we are so far apart.

---

I miss you, very much...

Today I have thought about you so often; I have missed you, and cherished you;

I have dreamed countless dreams of us together, reaching for clouds and searching for stars,

So that we may see and climb even higher.

I have encountered a hundred little things that I wanted to share with you,

But you were not there...

It made me appreciate you, and our times together, even more;

Yet still I will save all these things in my heart and mind, so that I may share all that I am with you.

It is my greatest wish to give you all the love you could ever need;

To touch you so that you will know I'm always there;

To cherish you above all others;

To respect you, and to remind you that you are the one I love.

-----

It's all your fault you know; - I've hardly accomplished anything today.

Every time I begin something, you creep into my thoughts,

Softly, slowly at first, and before I know it my imagination is filled with thoughts of you;

Warm thoughts;

Nice thoughts;

Loving thoughts;

But this is getting out of hand; I have to get something done tonight,

So maybe I'll begin with doing something very, very important;

I'll send this to you, just to let you know how much I miss you,

How much I need you,

And how very much I love you.
