Absence






Sitting still, heart racing, the sound of silence,

reflections of times passed in my mind,

the scent of you fresh in the air,

the tenderness of you caressing my soul,

the chill of a cold bed,

the phone calls that aren't you,

the talks we used to share, a time when you did care,

the love that was lost,

a smile faded, a tearful eye,

words spoken, hearts broken,

the damage, the regret, the remorse, nothing..

all in the absence of you.
