You were always there
and then,
in a heartbeat
you were gone.
Foreboding overlooked,
not wanting to fathom
the likely chance
of your disappearance.
In an ephemeral dream you appeared,
luminous and serene,
only to smile and return
to that unknown place.
Searching…
heart aching
for a moment
of knowing.
This palpable weight
makes me realize
how utterly unprepared I am
for the inevitability of losing you.

We never know what we have until we loose it. Nicely written this poem speaks of this to me.
