Love and Loss

Love and Loss

Listen
In the silence
There is peace
In those pauses.
No soundtrack
No internal dialogue.

Feel
In the darkness
Her presence there
Inches away
Just her presence
Knowing that is enough.

Know
She is not
But remember now
When she was there
At the center of my life

See
Not the passion
but quiet moments
Seeing her beside me
The curves of her body

Remember
The peace of her
Just the companionship
Of her being there
Through so much together.

Believe
She is still there
She always will be
Because I love her
That she always be there.
