Where Are You Lovely? Poem by Cory Ruda

I'm alone,
alone again.
Where are you?
What have I done?
I call out your name,
Lovely? Lovely?
Silence.
Nothing.
Forgive me, my heart.
I've lost her again.

Why? Why do I do this?
Can I never know her? Never keep her?
Never hold her?

Where are you Lovely?
Where have you gone?
Don't leave me alone.
Come back.
Return to me now.
My heart yearns for your presence.
My eyes fight to know thee once again
