And so I am made to miss him
For he left without reason or trace,
Stepping out of my shadows
And avoiding the path we'd
Planned to walk together.
His steps,
No longer in time with mine.
Silence
As I stand still and wait,
Hoping.
Hoping that he will come back,
That he won't leave me
Lost in the blackness he has left in his wake,
For he was my light.
