Aches of the heart

there is this ache
a missing
as I turn to look for you

knowing you are busy
occupied, somewhere…

remembering you
I’m smiling
wanting more

and feeling that
fade
to an ache

a little hurt
of missing you

and you probably do not even know I’m looking
a bigger hurt

but I’ll take it
the little ways we hurt
because I do miss you

have grown so fond of seeing you
talking with you

it makes my day
warms my heart
and is special
in a way that hurts
