that little haiku

Today the stars above
Shine a little less brightly
They say, "I miss you."
The birds chirped softer
As though they can read my soul,
Saying, "I miss you."
Then the trees whispered
A hushed yet public secret
That is, "I miss you."
The chilly winds bring rain
They bring tears and sensation
Of how "I miss you."
Of course ,the sun shines,
But he seems a little shy
Because, "I miss you."
And then the moon sees
My silent tears in my room
Oh, how "I miss you."
If missing you is
Less of what my heart feels true
Then I'll change the word.
Let that be, of how
My soul yearns, pines, longs, wishes
For you next to me.
Let that be, inscribed
I turn and hear your breath like
You are not away
Let that be, engraved
I count seconds like hours
And days, weeks, like years.
Let that be, known now
When I see you soon, I shall
Run into your arms.
For my muse 💭
