Notice of absence from arqios
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind
The music we shared was more than mere notes,
And the bread we broke held more than sustenance;
Now in your absence, a void remains,
The beauty that once adorned my world has withered.
Your touch graced the surfaces we frequented,
And your hands held these vessels with grace.
These objects, devoid of memory, stand silent,
Yet your essence lingers, an invisible presence.
In my heart, you walked among these familiar things,
Imbuing them with your light, your gentle touch;
In my heart, their echoes remain, a testament
To the time they knew you, wise and beautiful.

Sad yet beautiful .. very nice way with words ))
Aye, and thank you 🙏🏻 I always was of the opinion that if we can make sad beautiful then it will somehow help us move in its presence when it does come along our way. I’ve always grizzled at the lack of training many have had as children in navigating disappointment and sadness.
Yes indeed beautiful & sad .. 🐧👍
And hopefully not maudlin or morose. Hanging on to that last scrap of dignity, keeping calm and carrying on: a seasoned pass ticket.
A fine write A.
The screenshot it up above the post so high… like a diagram you can spy….
That's quite fair, that touches of love, affection and respect remain in the consciousness of the narrator/persona. best wishes, Like)

Lovely verse. Gentle, and speaks to me of both loss and sadness. A lingering essence. Now that is truly beautiful when missing someone special. Wonderfully penned arqios.
Yes, indeed; it is Cassie. Thank you kindly 🙏🏻
Wow! This is what I call tear-filled beauty my friend! Easily faved! 🌹👏
Loving that descriptive! "tear-filled beauty" a definite bonus where beauty is the main objective. Thanks ever so kindly. 🙂
You are welcome, my friend! 🙏❤️
"These objects, devoid of memory, stand silent," as objects surely will. You seem to imply a past tense, that would be a shame. Very nice.
Oh true that. You marked it out though as a timeless fact. Hope it shall never come to pass. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts DWi.
Wonderful emotive laden words arqios.
