silently missing you
Thursday, August 21, 2008 at 12:54PM overwhelming
it spikes on the radar... so quickly-
a whisper into eternity
a silent tsunami of grief
because i know i won't see you
until all is done.
i miss you when i'm weary
when everything seems complete- your memory reminds me
i miss the view--so close so far
i miss the structure of your sentences
i miss the arguments- constantly pushing me away (yes i miss that too)
i miss wondering about God with you.
all at once
this mighty consequence of separation
I can only hear your voice when all is silent
why is mourning not like morning- consistent and ever renewing
instead this sun rises in an moment --a song, a word, a memory, a dream, a fear.
and there i see your footprint. and a remember you
