Echoes of You

I saw your baby girl today
Playing in the park
With her sparkling eyes
And dimpling smile
An echo of you
The pain surging through me
Cruelly reminded me
How far away I am
From being over you

Dead Night

I woke up
Alone and cold
With the torment
Of your eyes
Appealing to my
Unguarded senses
No escape
Even in the dead
Of the night

Turbulence

The breaking of the water
The moving of the tide
Sways my heart to aching hell
I want you by my side

But you are nowhere

Abyss

Your scent lingers as
The memory of your
Touch teases me
Once there was a
You and me—
Us
Now there is only
An abyss

Missing You

It has been so long
Since I heard your voice
An eternity has passed
Since I felt your arms
A gulf separates your
Eyes and mine

Will I ever see you again?

No More

The spark between us
Flickered and grew
My obsession with you
Knew no bounds
Until that time you left
With my heart
Still firmly in your hands

Virgin Hearts

image

In seasons past we sat and talked
About life and death and everything
We spoke about the future and we laughed
Enraptured by what we both had found
Never enough, always wanting more
Our virgin hearts so unafraid
Of hurt or pain of going there
Oh! How my heart bleeds in my chest
When all I see now is an empty chair

Running Scared

image

I’m scared
Of so many things
I’m scared
Of not being needed
I’m scared
Of not being able to cope
I’m scared
Of going back to corporate life
But most of all
I’m scared
Of losing you

Taken Away

image

We waited for you
And as each train steamed by
We held our breath
Hoping that this would be the one
Until our hope lay dead
In the very tracks that had taken you
Away from where you belong

Farewell, Coco

Our bunny’s dead
We cannot bear
The pain within our chest

We do not know
What caused his hurt
Or why he had to go

He was alive
And now he’s gone
Breathed his final breath

We love you, Coco
We wish you didn’t go!
