You were gone...

You were gone like water drained into the sand
You were gone like a prey being stalked
You were gone like a sweet hot fudge sundae
You were gone like the tickets to the best movie
You were gone like my delicious birthday cake
You were gone like unwanted garbage left on a bed
You were gone like presents on Christmas day
You were gone like the seed of a beautiful flower that has yet to bloom
You were gone like the security you brought
You were gone like a message written too close to sea
You were gone like the tears that left my eyes
You were gone like the ink in my blue pen
You were gone like snow in spring
You were gone like the sun at night
You were gone like a long lost memory
You were gone like the best dream I can t seem to recall
You were gone like each sweet dream you brought
You were gone like the sorrow in my heart once you had returned
