Lost But Not Gone

One minute

We were there

Basking in the glory

Of the sunset

Heralding the end of a new day.

The next you were gone

Like smoke

Dissolving in the air

Only a mild fragrance

Tenderly caressing my heart.

You were gone.

To where?

I do not know.

But I hope you can find serenity there

Peace of mind

Eternal joy and happiness.

Years pass.

Flowers fade and fall.

Trees grows taller.

The snow melts and freezes again.

The sun still sets every day.

But then time ceased to exist.

For out of the corner of my eye

I saw a shadow

Of you

In the smile of a baby

The laugh of a child

The dawn of a new day.

And I know you are still with me

Every day

Watching from above.
