• I miss you
    That's nothing new
    I walked for miles
    All tears, no smiles

    I miss you
    You ran away
    I wept for days
    I hoped you'd stay

    I miss you
    But you are lost
    I'm weary
    I'm teary
    I paid the cost

    I miss you
    No sad goodbyes
    You ran away
    Silent alibis

    Left to wander
    Left to guess
    I miss you
    You know the rest - katiegab715
  • I Miss You

    Every dream goes by
    The feelings of past

    A drifting cloudy sky
    In its longing vast

    When we were very near
    Love's still a flower

    I wish you were still here
    Each beginning hour

    Love was everything
    Tender softness wide

    In heartbeats we did sing
    Rainbows were our guide

    Now curfew in feeling
    Sunset golden brow

    Times the years stealing
    It went somehow

    Each night I wonder still
    Where your star has gone

    If our past did fulfill
    To show its light on

    Nights are so lonely
    With dreams memories

    If you could still only
    To set my heart free - Peter S. Quinn

I Miss You

A poem by Katie Gabrielle

I miss you
That's nothing new
I walked for miles
All tears, no smiles

I miss you
You ran away
I wept for days
I hoped you'd stay

I miss you
But you are lost
I'm weary
I'm teary
I paid the cost

I miss you
No sad goodbyes
You ran away
Silent alibis

Left to wander
Left to guess
I miss you
You know the rest

  36. Panorama Paul (24 months ago | reply)

    One question for you Ben... do you have a clear idea of what you're trying to achieve when you take your photos... or do you look at your photos afterwards and only then decide what kind of pencil sketch would work best?

  37. Speed of Film (24 months ago | reply)

    Unbelievable art work and shots. So very clever. I'm really quite lost for words. So very good.
