You Are Gone
“You are gone
though we never crossed paths
I miss you.
I spend hours wondering about you
thinking ‘what would he do?’
because I know your choice would be the right one.
Like others you fell
not from grace or glory
but in that coldness of death.
I mourn you even now
time spent wondering passes like seconds
they melt into hours.
People say you can’t miss what you didn’t have
they are wrong.
I miss you like I would the stars.
I hear your final song every night
and every night it makes me miss you more
The night I miss you no more
Is the night I join you
in the cold embrace of eternal rest.”
