105

Halfheartedly I stumble through
A sympathetic soul to find
The void that you have left to fill
Emptiness within me does grow

Unstable rumblings fill my gut
Whenever your thoughts turn to me
Butterflies within me churning
As your voice my ears are hearing

Underneath thoughts that are laid bare
Throughout my life I’m missing you
Forgotten moments, forgotten joy
This second, this minute recurring

It’s not the same without you here
Without your witty demeanor
To wipe away the days weary
To buoy my tiresome façade

Back to me will one day you come?
Does this hope lead not to despair?
All I can do and all I pray
Is that one day you will be there
