i wish for you
but time makes
everything a memory
and yet that’s all i feel
all i am
all i can see
i remember this
that and wish
and i recall how i sat
got close to you
and thought that i could believe
i’d always have just that
i arrive
i sit
the pen weeps
i place my face...
into my hands
and on the page
tears land
you said so much
sometimes i read
through your words
over and over
and they just aren’t enough
they become too little
20 days
20 days
fighting the blankness i feel
i find your smile embracing every sunset
and still i cannot
have not
will not
forget
a thousand days
forever away and even then
they will not take you away
from my thoughts
even in this complete distance
you remain
