I'll always be looking

Brynlee

Where did you go?

I swear you were just here,

not too long ago

We were together, weren't we not?

It doesn't matter which room I walk into now

but why is it always the wrong one?

I saw your shadow pass by

I Ran...

stopped...

realized...

Pain makes us see what isn't there 

I looked back to see if you were following me

and now your gone for good

I look for you in the stars 

in the morning dew

in every grain of sand 

in the city lights

in the eyes of strangers 

in the waves 

and in the flowers 

but why can't I find you? 

Can't you come back?

  • Comment from author about the poem: I normally explain the story behind the poem but think of you own. Think of those things you've lost. The things you can't let go of.
