You...

You
Your eyes that smile
Your voice and laugh
Your heart and soul

Us
True love
Tears and laughter
Your voice and silence...

Distance...
Wondering...
Prayer and waiting...
Aching remembrances...

Pray...
Trust...
Father's love...
Patience & peace...

You
Your eyes that would smile
Your voice and laugh
Your heart and soul

Your whisper...
A memory...
Distance...
Silence...

Prayer and trusting
Patience and peace
Peaceful remembrances of
You

I said I wouldn't wait, did I? (by Kathryn-Ann Nourse)

You said you loved me but I said I wouldn't wait, and you didn't waste time to forget me. It wasn't love. It wasn't love. I don't cry 'cause your not mine in fact I'm happily forgotten but I just want you to know that I think your life is rotten, though you're happy. You're so happy. Are you? Oh she makes you smile and laugh and giggle, does she? I hope you love her, really love her like you should have loved me. Do you? Love her? Love her.
 
- This one is more of a rap text than a poem.  I had a lot of fun writing it.

There we aren't - by Kathryn-Ann Nourse

You're the evergreen outside my snowy window.
You're the moon that follows me through the night.
You're the sand on the beach.
You're the picture frame on my desk.

You're a post card away but as close as the breeze upon my face.
Ever mine, ever not.

Nameless (by Kathryn-Ann Nourse)

I hate that I loved you,
that I wasted time caring about you,
that my eyes are open and I see your faults and flaws.
I can't remember one good thing about you,
which maybe is better, since I'm nothing to you at all.

The crying child when you're watching a show,
the passionate young drummer in the middle of the night,
the sound of lawnmowers during your afternoon nap,
the person noisily speeding down the road.
I'm nothing to you and soon you will be a very long distance memory.
