Being Away From You Poem by amanda barr

It's hard to be apart from you
when all I want to do is feel you touch
and see your loving smile.
But just knowing we'll be together soon,
if only for a little while,
helps make the distance between us seem
somehow less and reminds us that it
won't always be like this.

One day we'll be able to hold each other
and know that it's not just a dream or a visit
that always ends to soon.
Until that day comes,
I'll keep missing you,
and counting the days
until we're in each others arms again.
Then we'll cherish the times we shared
and it will be as though we're never apart..
