We were in love
Like two inseparable doves…
We knew each other
Like no one we’ve known.
Days I spend in missing him
Nights in longing for him…
The sound of his voice
Embedded in my void…
His eyes, always piercing
With a dark spot in his left.
It intrigued me and
I’d say “I can see your heart in your eye!”
He’d laugh every time…
The sweet laugh that rings today in my wind chime.
I yearn for him…
For I’ve lost him to battles we couldn’t fight.
People have told me, “move on”
“Out of sight is out of mind”…
I remain silent…
…One night I heard a noise
It woke me up…
Startled I asked him
“Do you need anything?”
Then I cried…
As the empty bed spoke to me…
I hold his hand for eternity
The one you can’t see… but feel.
Love is…
To love forever
