The night is long without you
and my pillow is no solace
to the pain I feel inside,
soaking up these tears
that fall from my eyes;
I think of my head
against your shirt, your skin,
your heart beating against mine,
the rhythm drowning out the sounds
of all that was around us;
Nothing else but us two,
and the scent of our loving,
the tender sighs
that belonged to you and me;
And now there is this.
This ache that comes
from somewhere deep inside.
Oh, how I miss you!
Oh, how I want you!
Without you,
nothing is the same.

Excellent writing:)
It reminds me about a situation in my life where I had to say goodbye to someone who was not good for me, and as I was saying the words, my body was telling me that I still needed him so much,
