Definition of Missing you

missing my husband he just went back to iraq

 
I ache because your touch is gone
I have become obsessed with the smell of you
Seaching for a moment of bliss in memories
thoughts of you are swallowing me whole
Overwhelmed with the love i feel
Smiling at the wonderful life we share
Desperatly waiting for this war to end
I can't stand not being near my man
All my lifes happiness is connected in us as two
Each sacrifice just brings us closer
Each day i admire you more
You inspire me to live..
Always there to make me laugh...
Showing me the power of true love
Knowing we can survive it all
I simply smile through the pain
Sure our love is remaining

Just would rather you here
So we both could hold our memories near

Oh girl! I was a military wife. What a difficult road. I know the feelings of which you write here and it is a deeply personal pain.
The form and fluidity was beautiful and the point very clear. Kudos!!
