In Your Absence
Music from the joys of loving past moments
Soon grows still in the quiet of night
I lie stretched out in the darkness
Inviting your shadow into my bed
I toss and turn feeling restless
Distracted as a snowbound goose
Haphazardly drifting
Now, my life's in an unfamiliar forest
Like the murky, gray after-image of a dream
Where we lay in the soft blue-green grasses of love
I wait for a step
I've waited quietly this day, no step has fallen
Your journey has lasted long and in your absence
Each day comes
And goes
How would you approve this?

I wouldnt improve it much, but knowing myself, I like to write long poems. If it were me, i would make it just a tad bit longer. you had wonderful imagery though, and that's what I look for in a poem.
good work
