28

All of the sudden

I think of you 

Like feeling lonely 

In a crowded room 

A cold glass of water

A thirst that consumes 

One minute I’m happy 

The next into gloom 

The void it is endless 

The crevasse so deep

Like the sound of your laughter 

Or your breath as you sleep 

Like missing the ocean 

While caught in a wave 

The cool subtle darkness 

Of walking away 

Someday I won’t miss you 

Someday you’ll be gone 

From the trickling thoughts 

That seep in from beyond 

I’ll smile and think 

Of your beautiful face 

And nothing will hurt

Like it still does today
