YOU
Now I always knew…
Where are you… where are you?
Where… Oh, where did you go?
Today
I miss you horribly so!
I know… I know the clouds were gray,
Having nothing left to say,
When you went away...
Why do I still see you everywhere,
Almost as if you were here?
Why do echoes of sounds
and smell,
I know so well…
Embrace me every day…
Why did all that stay?
Still here… it never went away.
I’m leaving too… Today,
Seeing me they say:
“Oh, look! Happy as a fairytale book!”
What I leave… is a wiser smile,
Not seen for awhile,
The pages again blank… look new,
Never forgetting You…
