GONE

(c) 2018 Edward York

 

The day had passed by quickly,

But slowed into a crawl.

The sun said a last goodnight,

Casting shadows on the wall.

 

The night time passed by slowly.

It was finally time for bed.

It had become the worst time of all,

The time I had learned to dread.

 

I could no longer reach to touch you,

Darkness replaced your smile.

Silence replaced your laughter,

That entertained me for a while.

 

Memories are all that still remain,

I still visualize your face.

It is never really gone,

Because I see it everyplace.

 

Now things are getting better,

And I seldom ever cry.

And now I only miss you,

On days that end in \"Y\".
