Angel
I miss you
your words and way
the way we nearly completed
each others sentences
...and each other.
Thoughts of you
flooding back
the torrent smashing down barriers
heedless of time passed
I thought we couldn't,
wouldn't
...ever be
Just cause a thing is impossible,
doesn't mean it isn't
it just means it's harder to explain
to embrace
We lived for a time
for each other
needing each other like food,
then like water,
then like air.
fell away from each other
to the distractions of this
'real world'
Now food, water, and air
are still just that
They are not you
I thought I could turn my back on the sun
...and not feel its warmth permeating me
I thought I could turn my back on the moon
...and not see its silvery illumination of everything before me
I thought I could turn my back on you
...and not feel you still etched upon me
I feel I'm a shadow
...of who I was with you
