The Absence of Your Presence
Faded memories
Published in

Your presence is no
longer present.
Although I sometimes think I hear
you whisper in the shadows of my mind.
Photographs and shadows
fade as time takes scissors to my days.
If my memories pale to nothing
long before I leave this earth,
will I know you when I see you
on the other side of death?
