Empty Squares

At last it seems,
My true feelings have been shown.
You have gone,
My cover has been blown.
Your absence,
Is too much to take.
If you don’t return,
I will surely break.
I love you,
I finally understand,
But how,
Can you just watch me fall,
Over and over again.
I need your strength,
To hold me up,
I need your smile,
If only just for luck.
I need your kiss,
To erase all the pain.
I need your voice,
To melt within the rain.
I need you,
Just you.
Cause your love alone,
Has set me free.
Oh please,
Return soon.
Another night without you,
Makes it hard to breathe.
This pain is not like any other.
My heart it beats.
As if played by a dying drummer.
A world without you,
A thought too hard to bare.
Because....
You are my King,
A piece with no flaws or tears.
And without you,
I am just a queen stuck amongst empty squares..

(2014)

"Tears" as in I tore my shoe not as in tears. Just to clarify. And this along with all of my poetry is based upon personal feelings. I have been using a lot of chess analogy's I hope you enjoy this poem. Thank you
