I put a large pillow on the end of the sofa.
When I lie down for a nap,
I think my head is in your lap.
I took your placemat from the
table.
I know you are not there.
I wrap my arms around your chair.
I slide my hand across your side
of the bed.
The blankets are still and cold.
There is no hand to hold.
I talk to handsome you in that
photograph.
It is propped up in a chair.
Words hang unanswered in the air.
But that place that held my love
for you,
Could that be empty? Never!
Full and overflowing. Forever and forever.
I have read this before, but I read it again this mornig. Very well written and describes my feelings exactly.. I hope you have a wonderful summer at Delta. I loved that place very much as a young person.
